![]() ![]() Of course, the big question on everyone’s lips is whether Sony will put its prized possessions on its upcoming Game Pass rival – its first-party titles. Microsoft will also want to hold onto the 18 million-plus subscribers it’s attracted over the years, a number that completely eclipses the three million or so PS Now subscribers. If Sony can offer a similar service, there will be more onus on Microsoft to improve its offering, and include more perks and benefits over its rival. There’s no doubt that competition will make Xbox Game Pass stronger, however. The PS4 version of Crystal Dynamics superhero brawler came to PS Now, while Xbox Game Pass received the next-gen version. It means that PlayStation owners have had to make do with last-gen versions of titles that have been upgraded for the new consoles, like Marvel’s Avengers. Xbox Game Pass also includes Xbox Series X/S-optimized titles, while PS Now only includes PS4 games for users to play. That’s primarily because Microsoft releases its first-party games on Xbox Game Pass on day one, and has also managed to snag a number of high-profile third-party releases, like Outriders, Back 4 Blood, and now Rainbow Six Extraction. Sony has always had its PlayStation Now service, which lets you download PS4 and PS2 games and stream PS3 games, but its offering has always paled in comparison to Xbox Game Pass. With rumors that Sony is working on an Xbox Game Pass competitor continuing to circulate, Microsoft’s service will suddenly have a more like-for-like rival in the gaming subscription space.
