The main thing is Gamepass, but there’s no way Microsoft will stop pursuing Gamepass on consoles, and I doubt PlayStation would allow a competitor to it’s own subscription service on their platform (and Microsoft wouldn’t want to split revenue with them).
So I don’t see the hardware going away anytime soon. So all this means is more cross platform access to games, and it might encourage Sony to reciprocate.
