I am guessing the long term vision of MS is to have Gamepass be cross platform, and be the Netflix equivalent to gaming. Except in this case, they pretty much control a huge chunk of the content. So to them, it wouldn't matter if a person has Gamepass on a Sony, Nintendo, or MS console, as long as they are paying the monthly fee to use their service.
