Analyst: Game Pass Will Cannibalize Most Gears of War: E-Day Revenue on Xbox

Alinea Analytics analyst Rhys Elliott said most of Gears of War: E-Day's revenue on Xbox will be cannibalized by its inclusion in Game Pass. The game has sold over 120,000 copies on Steam for more than $7 million ahead of its October 6 launch, with early access from October 1.

• E-Day has sold 120,000 copies on Steam, generating over $7 million
• Sales are more than 2X those of Halo: Campaign Evolved in a similar period
• Elliott said the game is unlikely to ever hit 1 million copies on Steam
• He expects a PS5 port to arrive at some point despite rumors of cancellation
