This disappointing announcement is part of a larger narrative that Xbox is struggling with Sony Group Corp. SONY and not offering enough to entice players to choose Xbox over PlayStation.

This struggle is also reflected in the sales figures PlayStation 5 continues to sell Xbox series consoles. PS5 sales in March increased fivefold compared to the same period last year. In the meantime, Nintendo ADRs NTDOY Nintendo Switch saw sales decline 18% year over year, and Xbox Series X|S sales fell 10%.

Grubb and co-host Mike Minotti shared their thoughts on Xbox Series X: “Right now games are happening and it feels sloppy in a lot of ways. I think people who have put a lot of money into buying Xbox Series X are starting to look around and say, ‘This doesn’t feel quite right like it did at the beginning of this generation when there was a lot of promise.'”

In addition, the reporter pointed to corporate policy as the best explanation for Xbox’s disappointing performance. But he remarked, “Isn’t that the case everywhere?”

While Grubb doesn’t rule out the possibility that the platform will correct its path, he remains quite skeptical.

“Things could change very quickly if Starfield becomes a success and the Activision Blizzard Inc ATVI business closes. But I think there are just as many reasons to believe that won’t be the case and these problems could persist. And until we see evidence to the contrary, I think it’s perfectly fair to call on Microsoft and say, ‘What are you doing?'”…
