A shot long studied and finalized in the very recent period, which is loaded with an importance not only symbolic but effective as regards the market impact.

Xbox: from Bethesda some exclusive games
The one related to exclusives is an increasingly hot topic nowadays, and one of the most important and consistent fruits of this new union will be just that: the affiliation with Bethesda will lead to the release of some titles – also of high importance – exclusively on Microsoft platforms, Xbox and PC. At the moment there are still no leaked rumors about the games directly involved, but it is clear how it is a decisive change of gear.
News coming soon to Xbox Game Pass
Not only: the revolution does not stop at what has been told so far, but also involves Xbox Game Pass and does so immediately. A breath of fresh air has arrived as soon as the two companies have sealed the deal, with the expansion of the offer present in the Xbox Game Pass subscription: in fact, more than twenty Bethesda titles have been immediately added to the platform.
