Rumors keep circulating about a PlayStation competitor for Game Pass, but how does Xbox boss Phil Spencer feel about that?

✖ Over the last year or so, Xbox Game Pass has grown into a huge draw for Microsoft's platform. Naturally, the success of the subscription service has led to rumors that PlayStation might create a competitor for Game Pass , and some reports have even pointed to a spring release window. Speaking to IGN, Xbox boss Phil Spencer was asked about these rumors, and how he feels about the prospect of PlayStation offering a similar service.

"I don't really look at it as validation. I actually, when I'm talking to our teams, I talk about it as an inevitability. So for us, we should continue to innovate, continue to compete, because the things that we're doing might be advantages that we have in the market today, but they're just based on us going first, not that we've created something that no one else can go create," Spencer told IGN's Ryan McCaffrey.

Spencer's take is refreshing in its positivity! The Xbox business model this generation has been vastly different from PlayStation's approach. While PlayStation is just starting to embrace PC releases, and a Game Pass-inspired subscription service, these are concepts Xbox has pushed in a major way. For the video game industry to continue to thrive, companies like Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo will have to keep looking for new ways to innovate.
