So with that all in mind, let’s take a look at what we could expect to see in that swift 25 minutes. 2024-02-21T11:46:54.368ZAs part of theXbox Podcast last week, Phil Spencer said the following:“We’ve made the decision that we’re gonna take four games to the other consoles. Just four games, not a change to our fundamental exclusive strategy. We’re making this decision for some specific reasons.““We make every decision with the long-term health of Xbox in mind. Long-term health of Xbox means a growing platform, our games performing, building the best platform for creators, reaching as many players as we can.““We’re always looking to learn as a leadership team and to grow, and we think this is an interesting time to use what some of the other platforms have right now to grow our franchises.” As part of theXbox Podcast last week, Phil Spencer said the following: “We’ve made the decision that we’re gonna take four games to the other consoles.

Long-term health of Xbox means a growing platform, our games performing, building the best platform for creators, reaching as many players as we can.” “We’re always looking to learn as a leadership team and to grow, and we think this is an interesting time to use what some of the other platforms have right now to grow our franchises.” Interestingly, he said that he could imagine that over the next decade, exclusives generally will be less of athing- although also stressed thatStarfieldandIndiana Jones and the Great Circlewill both remain exclusives (at least for now).“I do have a fundamental belief that over the next 5 or 10 years, exclusive games, games that are exclusive to one piece of hardware, are going to be a smaller and smaller part of the game industry. And that’s not some great insight, because if you look at the last 10 years and what the biggest games are today, it’s a natural place - whether it’s one console in PC, multiple consoles, mobile, console, and PC - you see big games landing on multiple platforms. And we want to be a great platform for creators that are trying to realize that potential.” Interestingly, he said that he could imagine that over the next decade, exclusives generally will be less of athing- although also stressed thatStarfieldandIndiana Jones and the Great Circlewill both remain exclusives (at least for now). “I do have a fundamental belief that over the next 5 or 10 years, exclusive games, games that are exclusive to one piece of hardware, are going to be a smaller and smaller part of the game industry.

He said that: 2024-02-21T12:46:32.161ZSo with all that in mind, we imagine that there are some likely candidates for what those four games could me.The community-driven ones are most likely to be Grounded and Sea of Thieves - and neither really make huge sense to be Switch releases due to their always-on multiplayer focus.As for the other two, those referenced as smaller games, it feels more likely to be Hi-Fi Rush and Pentiment.Pentimentlaunched right at the end of 2022 so makes sense, andHi-Fi Rushin January 2023, so both just make the year-old criteria too.
