It recently became known that Asha Sharma considers Xbox Game Pass too expensive for players and in need of changes. There are no specifics yet, but the signal is clear – the company is looking for a more flexible subscription model.
One of the key topics remains exclusives. Many fans have long disliked Phil Spencer's course, in which Microsoft actively released games on other platforms. Therefore, any rumors about a return to exclusivity quickly attract attention.
Against this background, a statement was made by Jez Corden from Windows Central. According to him, "there are very active discussions going on at Xbox about exclusivity."
So far, we are not talking about specific decisions, but the very fact of discussions shows: Xbox is considering different options. Whether the company will return to a larger number of exclusives is unknown. It is clear only that after the change of leadership, the topics of Game Pass and exclusivity have again become key for Microsoft.
