Xbox and Its Future
It seems that the Console Wars that have been going on for more than three decades are starting to come to a conclusion. In fact, the big players seem reluctant to compete.
So far, Xbox and also Nintendo only focused on competing with the dominance of PlayStation (PS). But over time they realized that PS was actually not that special.
Nintendo “pulled out” first: creating its own market (hybrid console). There, it moved more freely because there were few competitors – known as the “Blue Ocean” strategy in business theory.
As the most "young", Xbox seeing the steps of their “seniors” is very inspiring. They also try to follow Nintendo's footsteps by not following Nintendo's strategy!
Of course they are looking at the PlayStation 5 Portal which failed so massively. Indeed, Sony is reluctant to admit that its latest product is "shattering" in the market.
But it is an “open secret” that the remote play device is the technology titan’s biggest “shame” – even more embarrassing than their previous handheld line-up.
From there, Microsoft and Xbox increasingly believe in the adage that says: “Experience others is the best teacher.” Yep, they are reluctant to fall into the same hole as Sony.
So, instead of fighting in the handheld line (very “dark” for them), Xbox chose to create its own “Blue Ocean”: switching to a gaming subscription service business model.
They are aiming for one thing, which is to dominate the multiplatform gaming subscription service. Until now, this line is still quite empty and has a very broad potential!
And through the collaboration scheme, this is the best way to expand Xbox's reach: reaching more consumers from market segments they have never touched before!
Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition
And as explained above, the Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition product is present as one form of actualization of this corporate plan.
They are reluctant to enter new lines, especially if they have to spend more funds on the Research and Development (R&D) division – which does not necessarily guarantee a return on investment.
Because of that, for a new line that is not their focus, Xbox is reluctant to compete directly with other VR headset device “players”.
By focusing solely on the collaboration scheme based on the brand and its already very large fanbase, Xbox pushed Meta to release a limited edition of the Quest console.
