Microsoft announced a new commitment to gaming on Windows PCs. Microsoft is cutting its share of game revenue from 30% to just 12%, letting devs keep more money. Microsoft also teased more "quality-of-life" improvements for PC gamers, touting "improved install reliability and faster download speeds." Microsoft has a checkered history when it comes to PC gaming. While its early work to make Windows as open as possible for game development led to the industry we know and love today, later blunders like Games for Windows Live did more than a fair share of damage to its reputation in the space. And even now, many PC gamers haven't forgotten, nor forgiven. The modern Microsoft is proving itself to be a lot different, however, making over a hundred high-quality games available on Xbox Game Pass for PC at a relatively low cost, while also showcasing a commitment to bringing its flagship Xbox titles to Steam and beyond.
