Xbox strategy reveal
It was going to be about Activision Blizzard originally (nailed it)

All first-party games will be in Game Pass on day one (as is the case now)

Game Pass will only be on Xbox (whatever "Xbox" means as it's on PC too)

The strategy is unchanged: Meet gamers where they are

But the best experience is on Xbox (this is like going from "Windows only" to "Windows first" to "Windows best")

Portability across hardware platforms is a key part of the strategy - Backward Compatibility, etc.

A future generation of Xbox console hardware will offer "the largest technical leap you have ever seen in a hardware generation."

Oh, and four games are coming to "other consoles."
