With the EU’s new Digital Markets Act taking effect on March 7, 2024, will Xbox and PlayStation have to open up their boxes to third party downloads via browser because of the companies market cap size? Apple had to due to market cap size. Sony and Microsoft both offer apps on their boxes too like Netflix Disney plus etc. Obviously game pass and PlayStation plus would remain the same, but could Sony be forced in the EU to allow third party apps downloaded from a browser like game pass app? Or Xbox be forced in the EU to allow third party apps downloaded from a browser like PlayStation plus or epic games store?
