Why is no one talking about how GTA 6 for the first couple years being ONLY available on XBOX and Playstation both of which are own by Microsoft and Sony and will be getting 30 PERCENT of every sale of GTA 6 without spending a cent on developing GTA 6. Everyone is focusing in on TTWO when the real money makers are going to be the two platforms who will see a HUGE increase in players and active users and a huge jump in not only console sales but game sales. And if GTA 6 flops these players will continue to buy other games on the XBOX and Playstation store. Is everyone forgetting that GTA 6 will be exclusive to XBOX and Playstation for 1-3 years before coming to PC? Im bullish on GTA 6 but i’m loading the boat on Sony and Microsoft the two companies that benefit without spending a cent.
Sony and Microsoft will Benefit from GTA 6 more than TTWO

Sony leaps 👌 plus they are also growing in their image sensor business
This would make sense if the consoles weren’t almost 6 years old at this point.
I’m pretty sure all this is priced in. It’s not going to move the needle for Microsoft either for them it’ll be a big drop in a 200bn plus bucket.
They won’t be getting 30%, I guarantee you TTWO has a better deal with them. Plus, Sony and Microsoft are so huge that I doubt it would make a huge impact on their overall revenue. Not to forget they’ll have to have the infrastructure in place (or pay AWS) to distribute hundreds of millions of gigabytes of game files in a few days. That’s going to eat into the margin quite a bit I imagine.
Xbox represents just 7% of Microsoft’s total revenue, and the price for the Series X is already so high that it’s hard to imagine they’re going to gain many new customers that have refused to upgrade for 6 years at this point, plus hardware sales dropping every quarter
More bullish on Sony, they’ve been building a larger player base for years and can capitalize with a November sale/deal to bring more people in
