VGC | Xbox games are coming to PS5 - The VGC Podcast @VGC | Uploaded 7 months ago | Updated 19 hours ago
Microsoft has confirmed that four unnamed Xbox exclusives will be released on other console platforms, such as PlayStation 5 or Nintendo Switch.
According to The Verge sources, corroborated by VGC, these games will be Pentiment, Hi-Fi Rush, Sea of Thieves and Grounded.
The news was announced as part of a new podcast designed to give an update on plans for the Xbox business going forward, in which gaming boss Phil Spencer claimed the decision had been made to ensure “the long-term health of Xbox”.
In the podcast, Spencer said that Starfield and Indiana Jones – titles previously reported to be in consideration for PlayStation 5 – would not be going multiplatform. In a separate interview with The Verge, the exec said he wouldn’t rule out the possibility for these titles to arrive on PS5 in the future (“I don’t think we should as an industry ever rule out a game going to any other platform,” he said).
