So we already know that Sony has announced the Play At Home initiative for PS4 and PS5 games. For March through June, Sony will give gamers games to play completely free of cost, and no PS Plus needed. The first game, Ratchet and Clank, is already available. So there's 3 more games left. Meanwhile, Xbox confirms the acquisition of Bethesda, and what happens next? 20 Bethesda games come to GamePass the next day. Most of these games have been out for a while, and have either been deeply discounted (or free), or can be purchased for very cheap. One example was Rage 2. Epic just gave this game out for free! Then there's Nintendo. You want to play Mario 35? Celebrate Mario's history? Well guess what? You need a Nintendo online membership. Also, I can't remember the last time Nintendo has given anything for free, despite their tremendous success. And speaking of success, according to a recent SW post, MS is the wealthiest of them all.
So what gives, SW? How come Sony is so generous, offers free games, while Xbox and Nintendo have strings attached?
