Xbox and Electronic Arts announced not too long ago a partnership that would bring EA Play games to Xbox Game Pass owners. For those who own the subscription, the move proved to be a bargain, as the price will remain that way. This ingenious move has reinforced in the minds of the players the idea that the service offered by Microsoft is the best around. All subscribers to the service will be able to download EA Play titles ahead of launch next week.

The new consoles of the Redmond giant lack that exclusive title that makes sales soar. The title that was supposed to drive sales would have been Halo Infinite, but it has been postponed. However, Xbox has done an excellent job in making their console a point of reference for those who want a very large stock. Xbox Game Pass has a fantastic range of titles both proprietary and other developers, but now that EA Play is in the catalog, subscribing to the service that Microsoft offers is very affordable.
PlayStation 5 has some exclusives that are likely to make players incline to buy it. On the other hand, Xbox has stated that Sony is not its main competitor at the moment. Given the vast offer proposed by Microsoft with consoles, Game Pass on PC or streaming on xCloud, at the moment it does not see any rival for the near future.
