They need more subscribers. Period. They cannot afford to support all of the AAA studios they have purchased, with the amount of subscribers they have now. Starfield most likely didnt bring in enough new subscribers, and Xbox gamers make it frequently known they will not buy games. Their only chance, is to gain subscribers from other consoles. Its been assumed for a while now, that gamepass is most likely not profitable. If you look at what they spend to bring outside games to the service, theres almost no way it can be. Now add in all of the acti studios they have to pay for.

Microsoft can't afford to keep software developers? Unless MOAR GAMEPASS? Tell me you're talking out your ass without telling me you're talking out your ass.
