This partnership will help PlayStation get a strong foothold in Spain. Additionally, it will also appeal to other markets where Real Madrid has a bigger fanbase. Consequently, a Real Madrid FIFA 21 bundle for PS4 Pro is now available for purchase.

On the other hand, Microsoft recently announced a multi-year partnership with video game retailer Gamestop. Obviously, this is a move to ensure that the Xbox Series X and S sales receive a boost. Tying up with one of the world’s biggest retailers is indeed a great move that will benefit both Xbox and Gamestop in the long run.

It seems both Microsoft and Sony are doing everything they can to ensure that their consoles come out on top. With the global pandemic still at large, there is a possibility that the pre-orders for the consoles will be delayed. Nevertheless, both the companies will definitely ensure that their customers get exactly what they wished for, on time.
