I don’t think it is really two different products. It’s just that some functions will not work on some platforms. From a development point of view manageable. I see more problems with the perception of the customer. It is simply not easy to explain to some customers that something does not work. And that we can’t offer a lower price for those who only use it on an Xbox even though some pretty important functions will not be available.
To make things even more complex, MSFS will soon be available on Xbox Cloud Gaming. For the many people who now struggle to keep the sim running or have simply do not have the powerful PC needed but have fast internet a seriously interesting option. It’s what MS aims for. Buy the product and use it on any possible device. MSFS on an iPad, why not?
So many things to think about. Interesting times for sure.
