With the change of the Playstation Plus system, the competition between Sony and Microsoft has also intensified. Microsoft was reported to have generated 2.9 billion revenue from the Xbox Game Pass system last year . Today, a very interesting report has emerged for a game in both systems. According to reports, Sony paid $ 3.5 million to add Ark: Survival Evolved to the PS Plus system.

Moreover, Sony paid $ 3.5 million to put Ark: Survival Evolved on PlayStation Plus for a month, while Microsoft paid $ 2.5 million to put the same game on Xbox Game Pass for six months. Kotaku editor Ethan Gach noted on Twitter that these details were revealed in a filing filed by Snail Games USA (the parent company of Ark developer Studio Wildcard) with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Ark arrived on PlayStation Plus in March 2022 and was free for subscribers during the five-week period between March 1 and April 4. Neither Sony nor the developers involved have previously disclosed how much these deals cost.
