It's undeniable Microsoft has seen there is no reason to have a console nor 1st party development. Look at Valve with Steam and Amazon with Luna and in another sense Nvidia with GeForce Now. All 3 bring in massive profits for their respective companies. However, at this point Microsoft is out of touch with XBox being a streaming only service considering GeForce Now can stream XBox games and PC Games from a gamers library on Epic, GoG, Steam, and XBox.
The XBox from it's inception was a copy cat product to compete with Sony (Playstation), Sega (Dreamcast), and Nintendo devices.
Or copying the Valve / Steam model....
