In a recent interview, Xbox chief executive Phil Spencer has all but confirmed that it won’t be making its first-party titles exclusive to its console, suggesting that it might be high time for console warriors to bury their hatchets for the sake of unity.
Spencer said this in a Jan. 25 interview with Destin Legarie, who asked him to state definitively if Starfield will “stay put” as an Xbox exclusive, indicating that Indiana Jones is also planned for a PS5 release. “There’s no reason for me to put a ring fence around any game and say this game will not go to a place that it would find players,” Spencer said, adding that a game being available on more platforms simply constitutes “better business” for Xbox. “Our strategy is to allow games to be available,” he suggested, concluding that the concept of Xbox-only exclusives “doesn’t work” for the gaming conglomerate.
