How so? Expectation PC players will get a GP sub to stream the 'console' game on PC? Won't they have to buy it on 'console' to be able to do that, which then won't transfer into a Windows licence once the native version is available?

Yes, you have to buy the console version of the game, since only that will be available, and in the meantime you have to subscribe to the GP service. However, if you do all this through the MS store, you will also receive the future PC version with the one-time purchase due to the Xbox play anywhere program.

Remember, this is GTA6, and probably a lot of people won't wait for the later native PC release if they want to play the game and it will be available that way.

Ok I'm playing Ninja fucking Gaiden 2 UE5 remaster starting today and 5 other AAA MS games for the next 4 months, all for $50
Good luck to anyone who wants to do this without Gamepass for $400.

A remake? Not exactly compelling stuff.

It's also very easy to do this for less than $400, wait like two months and the games will be half off. All Xbox games do this as none of them sell well.
