PlayStation is thinking of an Xbox Game Pass competition. The contention between Sony and Microsoft continues and now the response from PlayStation to the Xbox Game Pass subscription service is awaited. In the statements made by the president of Sony Interactive Entertainment, Jim Ryan, it was not detailed what action PlayStation would take in the face of the success of Xbox Game Pass.
Another person who testified about it was David Jaffe, one of the creators of ‘God of War’. He developed a podcast where he defended Jim Ryan’s management with numbers that support his management. At the end of the broadcast he said that PlayStation is developing a response to Xbox Game Pass and that it is a matter of time to see it.
