In addition, Sony’s mobile business, its patents and cameras, video and television have also become Microsoft’s work. At the same time, PlayStation, a favorite of video game enthusiasts, will also come under Microsoft. According to the information, Microsoft will continue to sell PlayStation 5 and assist buyers, and its Xbox team is working to bring all Sony exclusive content to Xbox Game Pass.
PlayStation’s full content will reach Xbox Game Pass
The biggest benefit of this deal will be those who play on Xbox, but also want to play PlayStation games. PlayStation and Xbox are the most popular consoles in the world of video games. While Sony was the PlayStation product, Xbox was Microsoft’s. Now with the acquisition of Sony, Xbox users will also get to play games like Spiderman and The Last of Us which were available on PlayStation till now.
Never repeat the story like purchase of Nokia
The deal also includes Sony’s smartphone business, which currently falls under Sony Video and Sound Products. Microsoft’s move is reminiscent of the acquisition of Nokia in the days of Windows Phone, which Microsoft suffered a lot. However, Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsopt believes that this time it will not happen. This time the company has developed a strategy similar to that adopted by Google with Motorola.
