Probably consumers might benefit from concentration of gaming titles within Xbox for more seamless experiences. But, arguably very destructive in the long run. As this is a major INDEPENDENT studio, not only for multiplatform but also for deciding the titles/projects they produce.
As we see with the HBO Max/Discovery merger, once companies merge, they have the option to close or end projects, that is destructive to both consumers and the creators of those.
Furthermore, these are trillion dollar companies, that are almost getting if not already way past the size of "Too Big To Fail". These companies need to be reigned in, if we are trying to create mobility in the private sector, as well as consumer choice, and avoid monopolization currently already in tech.
