First, they have to prove themselves with their own storied, single player properties. And a while back, Microsoft had a chance to bring a Marvel MMO to the Xbox platform and canceled it.

The only reason they have DC Online is because Sony sold the developer responsible for the game. Sony can handle Marvel and DC it seems. In and out of VR.
It’s possible they could get something. But even as a Punisher fan, not a Gears clone that would have a limited player base because it’s too bloody compared to the universally accepted, friendly neighborhood Spider-Man by kids and adults. And, do we need another, “What does Tameem Antoniades think is cool game?” DMC wasn’t cool. But Capcom created DMC5 themselves and Dante was cool again and sold well to original fans with better style and combat.
Howard the Duck? “Wait wait wait! Just hear me out.” Lol! Just NO!
It comes down to quality and consistent output. Sony has less money but gets approached often because of output. Microsoft is worth a TRILLION and barely gets any offers if any. They need to raise the bar. When that bar is achieved, then give them a chance at a property. Don’t need another Crackdown fiasco.
