On the occasion of the recent presentation Xbox inside permanent leader of the ceremony The Game Awards Jeff Keely organized a special podcast issue Bonus round. The guests of the journalist were the senior Xbox marketer Aaron Greenberg, former Microsoft top manager Peter Moore and famous analyst Michael Pakter. Together they discussed the current state of the industry and the steps that major market players are taking in anticipation of the new console generation.
Of particular interest were the words Michael Pakterwho touched on the topic of pricing processes on Xbox Series X and Playstation 5. In his opinion, Microsoft has every chance to offer the user a cheaper gaming system: Wait for the performance of Sony, and then arrange a surprise for the competitors.
“Microsoft has now taken a very wise stance towards Sony. As far as I understand, Sony simply has no alternative but to sell the PlayStation 5 for $ 500. But Microsoft has wide pockets. If it is needed, it can throw off the extra $ 100 and support the release the first ten million systems from your budget.
Therefore, it seems to me that Microsoft will continue to wait for Sony’s step, and then announce the cost of the Xbox Series X and give the exact launch date. Given that this is a holiday season, I put in November and the figure of $ 400. And for this money, players will get a lot, “explained Pacter.
Recall that the launch of the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 4 should take place by the end of the year. According to rumors, the next Sony event will be held in June.
