For the past two decades, Microsoft and Sony have competed for supremacy in the console market. With the introduction of Spotify, Netflix, Kindle, Social Media, and online casinos in recent years, the entertainment age has taken another step forward. Could Xbox consider switching to other services in the future to gain an advantage? Is it possible that they will try to port online casino games to the console? Casino entertainment is already well-established in video games. But what happens if they go one step further?
Microsoft has already indicated that multiplayer gaming is the future of Xbox. It's at the heart of everything they want to accomplish. This viewpoint is nearly identical to that of the casino industry. For a long time, gamers would play online alone, but online casinos have pushed to develop multiplayer Texas hold'em, baccarat, roulette, blackjack, craps, and various other games that can be played with friends or with other players from all over the world.
