Why is that people take tweets from random people on the internet as statements of fact?
Wake me up when there's more concrete information.

The title is misleading, they didn’t make a deal to stop it from going to Gamepass. That implies that they were intending to launch it on Gamepass and Sony swooped in with a deal to stop it.
Sony has a marketing deal with Capcom for RE Village. As part of that marketing deal, understandably, they don’t want the game going on a competitor’s subscription service as a free title for existing subscribers, as that wouldn’t be much of a “marketing deal” for PS.
Nothing unusual about this, in fact I’m sure that big Gamepass titles like Outriders have a clause where they can’t go on any other subscription service etc for a minimum period, as MS paid for that deal for publicity.
Every day I become more convinced that evolution might not be working too well after all, either...Sony is doing a lot to stop the GAMEPASS train, it doesn't seem to work after all

They can’t make deals for MLB The Show, they’re the developer but MLB is the publisher on Xbox and the IP owner. MLB holds the rights to any negotiations with Xbox and while Sony will get a portion of the GP money, they likely weren’t in a position to veto the deal without having the rights to the IP revoked.So uh, they did this with RE Village, but not their OWN FUC'ING BASEBALL GAME FROM THEIR OWN 1P STUDIO? Major whoops if true.
Just how credible is this Twitter person, btw?
But this makes no sense; they somehow "remembered" to do this with RE Village, but forgot to do it with their own in-house MLB The Show '21?
The nature of them having such a specific clause for Capcom would seem reactionary to finding out about the MLB GamePass situation, because I can't see them locking it down for RE Village in advance but somehow failing to do it with their own game. If it's down to the fact they have to release The Show on other platforms at all, well...technically RE Village is coming to other competitor platforms too and it's not even a game they're developing, merely co-marketing on.
When you break it down logically the Twitter "leak" honestly doesn't make any sense, so my BS switch is set to ON for this one.
Sony and Capcom signed a marketing deal... yes.
Y’all can still buy it right? I can’t say the same about starfield on Ps5. I think your rental service has you a little spoiled. Why don’t you support the developers and buy their games?

Wut?Do you want to go and ask them for us?
It's still a secret, it's staying between us. A few thousands of us that is.If it is secret how am I reading about it on GAF?

"For a period of one (1) year after the release of the Game on PS Platforms ("Exclusive Negotiation Window"), the SIE Affiliates shall have the exclusive right of first negotiation and last match to include the Game within PlayStation Plus, PlayStation Now and Any similar subscription service offered by SIE Affiliates on PS Platforms ("PS Subscription Service").
Blocking companies?
How are they blocking companies from making money when Capcom agreed to do a deal with Sony? If Capcom believed they would make more money, then they wouldn't bother signing an exclusive deal with Sony.

I'm not wearing my glasses but I can't seem to find that either. As for limiting Game Pass, Stadia and other streaming. I have expected that as I expect MS/Google/Amazon to limit releases on competing streaming platforms.Where is the print that says the resolution has been capped?
