I think it's a great spot to be. Should be more than enough to be profitable if they need it to be and has ample room to grow given how large the gaming market is these days. If I was heading up the division responsible for game pass though I'd be working hard right now on forging a roadmap for how to expand into the mobile market. I think cloud gaming is an excellent way to deliver true gaming experiences to a crowd that today make do with seriously subpar experiences and extremely predatory monetization. Couple that with them making their own smartphone attached universal game controller and they will get filthy rich.

Thanks for the insight. Cloud gaming feels like that's where the industry is leaning towards.

Haven't done it personally. I do have mobile games and a steam deck. So I probably won't jump on it immediately, but will keep an eye on it.
