Microsoft has made it clear that players shouldn’t expect Xbox Series X exclusive games for at least a year after the console’s launch. Though this news was disappointing for some, it’s a more realistic goal than committing to Series X exclusives from the get-go. Sony, however, is seemingly entering the next generation with a different mindset. Kotaku’s Jason Schreier revealed on the recent Splitscreen podcast episode that Sony will have PS5-exclusive games at launch.
Microsoft, according to Schreier, remains committed to making its games available on as many devices as possible - at least early on. Third-party games, predictably, will be available on both console generations come launch. Schreier name-dropped the next Assassin’s Creed game as a prime example of a big-budget cross-gen game coming this year. You can listen to the full episode at the link above.
