“Im actually curious if any of those agreements come with an exclusivity clause?“
That was their initial plan.
Spencer and his team actively tried to convince third-party publishers (such as SEGA, Ubisoft, EA, Square Enix) to distribute games exclusively via Game Pass at times – ideally even Day One.
I really wonder why many people seem to have forgotten about that. It appeared in the leaked documents in the FTC trial.
We have proof at hand what Xbox tried to do with GP initially.
They wanted to suffocate Playstation buying up publishers AND by making other 3rd party exclusive to Game Pass.
But luckily, many publishers rejected their offer.
