Earlier this month Microsoft completed its acquisition of Bethesda Softworks' parent company ZeniMax Media. One of the developers now part of Xbox is Arkane Studios, best known for the Dishonored franchise and Prey.
Arkane Studios' Dinga Bakaba in an interview with Press Start said that Xbox Game Pass will let the developer remain creative with its future titles.
"Being able to be apart of the Xbox Game Pass ecosystem makes things a bit different for us, because we can occupy a space in that service, and we will continue to make the kind of games that we make and make them well," said Bakaba."
"If you’ve looked on social media, you’ll see that games like Prey and Dishonored 1 and 2 coming to Xbox Game Pass, a lot of people are saying that you need to play these games and have no excuse not to, so it’s been very encouraging.
"It’s a service that will allow us to remain creative and have the audience and build that relationship over time and that’s really exciting."
The next game from Arkane, Deathloop, will launch for the PlayStation 5 and PC on May 21.
