Microsoft Pays 140 Billion to Bring Marvels Guardians of Galaxy to Xbox Game Pass

Microsoft can be said to be quite successful with their Xbox Game Pass. Of course, behind this success, they have done various ways to make Xbox Game Pass attractive to everyone.

They have to spend quite a lot of money to bring famous games into Xbox Game Pass. For example, call it a game made by Square Enix – Marvels Guardians of Galaxy.

For all those who wonder where these numbers come from- I have been covering Square Enix as an Analyst for 15yrs and talk to them regularly. Terms of a Xbox agreement are confidential but these are my estimate based in discussions with Square and others .— David Gibson (@gibbogame) March 26, 2022

According to information, Microsoft must spend around USD 5-10 million or the equivalent of IDR 70-140 billion to bring the game to Xbox Game Pass. Launching from VGCDavid Gibson as a senior analyst at MST Financial said that Microsoft is paying this nominal.

Although this nominal has been confirmed, Gibson still believes that the figure is an estimate based on discussions between Microsoft and Marvel’s Guardians of Galaxy. Especially when you know that Microsoft is not very open to things like this.

Spend a lot of money for a license!
