In the lawsuit with the US Federal Trade Commission, relevant documents show that Microsoft has estimated that if the new works of “Starry Night” and “Indiana Jones” are released on the PlayStation platform, the sales volume will exceed 10 million sets, so they decided to release these two. The game is listed as exclusive to the Xbox platform. According to the documents submitted by the US Federal Trade Commission, Tim Stuart, corporate vice president of Microsoft and chief financial officer of Xbox, believes that if considering the current PlayStation game console market share and the number of players, the new works of “Starry Sky” and “Indiana Jones” will be listed as exclusive games on the platform. It is expected to drive Xbox game revenue and increase sales of Xbox game consoles. Prior to this, Pete Hines, vice president of Bethesda, confirmed in an interview that the parent company ZeniMax had reached an agreement with Disney. The new “Indiana Jones” produced by MachineGames was originally scheduled to be released on multiple game console platforms. After the acquisition of ZeniMax, the content of the relevant agreement was amended, making this new game an exclusive work for the Xbox game console. In addition, when facing questions from lawyers representing Microsoft, PlayStation CEO Jim Ryan stated that the exclusive release of Starfield on the Xbox platform does not constitute a market monopoly, but he believes that the Xbox Game Pass provided by Microsoft has seriously affected game developers and publishers Profit, emphasizing that he continues to invest in first-party game works and assist more game content to be released through the PlayStation platform, which will benefit more game companies. The court recently rejected the US Federal Trade Commission’s application for an injunction to prevent Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard. Complete this transaction.
