How is this current news? This has been the strategy for the last 3 years with Gamepass. Who cares about consoles and exclusives when you just provide a rental service across-the-board.

Their strategy is to curate a good rental library and just deploy it everywhere there's a screen and internet connectivity.

Right now the block on mobile which the EU just obliterated was store exclusivity taking a percentage, but even Apple will have to allow other storefronts on their devices.
