He's always saying "we have a plan" and he seems to be very confident about it. I think its purely based on providing good services and value. Not so much competing with Sony's AAAA single-player, story-driven games.
Microsoft knows they can't beat them there. You can't just buy a bunch of studios and expect them to compete with Sony's studios that have been around for multiple console generations. It's pretty obvious as both Halo and Gears weren't created by studios owned by Microsoft. They have a lot of catching up to do and many years of of experience is needed to get where some Sony studios have been for a long time.
I'm guessing its all about Game Pass and offering a cheap(er) console. I think they're going to launch the series X at the same price or cheaper than PS5, no matter how much money they lose.
For millions of CoD/Fifa/Free-to-play gamers, getting a series X with Game Pass is going to be a great deal. If they want an even cheaper alternative, behold the series S! I think its a great strategy for them.
