I think they are probably betting that for $10 a month, people who already have a playstation or xbox would check it out and subscribe from pure curiosity. When the next generation of consoles come out in a couple years, here's the choice users will be looking at:
$500 for a new playstation/xbox? Or just keep paying that $10 a month subscription that I forgot about two years ago?
Imagine you are a parent and your 13 year old kid wants to play whatever the new popular game is. You can spend a few hundred bucks on a console, or you can spend $10 a month for them to play the same game. It's an easy decision.
- dlp211 7y agoThis is a very naive point of view. The whole reason to buy a console is exclusives. I'm not buying a PS5 to play the next crossplatform game, and 13 year old will want many of those same exclusives. Also, the next gen of consoles is slated to drop next year.
