There's no reason for me to put a ring fence around any game and say this game will not go to a place where it will find players and have business success for us. What we find is we're able to drive a better business that allows us to invest in a great game lineup like you saw. That's our strategy. Our strategy is now to allow our games to be available.

Game Pass is an important component of playing the games on your platform." A PlayStation 5 port of Starfield has been rumored since Xbox shared its quote-unquote vision of the future of Xbox a year ago, where it confirmed that Sea of Thieves, Hi-Fi Rush, and more would no longer be Xbox console exclusives.

These are great questions. These are great questions. Yes, I assure you he's sick of having to say the same things over and over and over again. How much longer? I think until it comes out. That's the weird thing because eventually you're going to turn the corner with Starfield especially. where it's no longer, okay, is this ever going to happen? All right, when is it going to happen?

Clearly, it's going to happen. Everything you just said, you want to get as much juice out of this orange as possible, right? Starfield's done what it's done. It's not doing more on Xbox or PC. There's not going to be some giant DLC, God, I hope I'm wrong, that brings in a gajillion people because it's so great. So what's the point anymore, right?

So it's like, as long as you're picking and choosing on stuff like that, the question is inevitably going to come up. I'm like, okay, well, what about PlayStation? So it's like, damned if you do, damned if you don't. The easiest way to make it not happen would be like, they're all coming to PlayStation eventually. That's our new motto. We're going to be everywhere eventually.

And so as long as they're playing this weird thing where they're, like, making... If they would have a rule, if they would have a line in the sand, every game is exclusive to Xbox until, and NPC and Game Pass or whatever, until six months out, eight months out, whatever, then you stop getting this question. But as long as you keep making it up on the fly. What the fuck?
