Subject: Subscription-free multiplayer
Hi Phil
Long ago, we talked optimistically about the possibility of
subscription-free multiplayer on Xbox. (PlayStation requires
subscriptions for multiplayer but exempts free-to-play games including
Fortnte)
If this is coming, please consider the possibility of timing the
program to support Fortaite Season 14 launch on 8/27. This launch will
follow the confidential Fortnite Mega Drop 20% price drop that's
coming in mid August, and will be our biggest and best Fortnite season
thanks to a huge collaboration with Disney/Marvel
Epic has certain plans for August that will provide an extraordinary
opportunity to highlight the value proposition of consoles and PC, in
contrast to mobile platforms, and to onboard new console users. While
can’t share details with an third party at this point, I give you
Epic’s assurance that our efforts will be positive and supportive of
Microsoft, Xbox and Windows
realize this is incomplete information and you have a big ship
that's slow to tun, so the specific ask is: please keep in mind this
possibility for 8/27 and expect events throughout August to draw the
specific opportunity into focus.
Tim
