Yeah, maybe. The OS will be built around Game Pass like how SteamOS heavily incentivises you to use Steam. I think they'll have a unified game launcher like Armory Crate on the ROG Ally devices.

That way, it's a PC that you can use steam on, but the choice architecture and UX will be pushing you to the MS store.
