Xbox Game Pass

Update: Just to confuse things further, Xbox boss Phil Spencer has told Windows Central this week that there are "no plans to bring Game Pass to PlayStation or Nintendo". We've covered this elsewhere on Pure Xbox:


Original story: Xbox is constantly talking about making its games more accessible to players around the world, and with this in mind, the company's CFO Tim Stuart has reiterated the company's "mission" to get first-party releases and Game Pass on "every screen that can play games".

During the Wells Fargo TMT Summit, he explained how this goal even included platforms like Nintendo and PlayStation. It's worth noting, that there's nothing serious in the pipeline right now, but it's something Microsoft would supposedly like to achieve in the long run:

"That means smart TVs, that means mobile devices, that means what we would have thought of as competitors in the past like PlayStation and Nintendo."

In the lead-up to its recent acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Microsoft offered 10-year Call of Duty deals to its competitors and expanded Xbox cloud support. It's mentioned on a number of occasions as well how it won't be cutting support for existing game communities on other platforms.

Earlier this month, Phil Spencer also mentioned how Microsoft will think of Nintendo and PlayStation as "part of the Xbox community" going forward.
