Microsoft Gaming CEO teases exciting future plans; could bring Xbox games to PlayStation next week


Microsoft is set to reveal its plans to bring Hi-Fi Rush and other Xbox exclusives to PS5 and Nintendo Switch, according to a report by The Verge.

The details of Microsoft’s multi-platform strategy have been gradually emerging, with The Verge recently disclosing that the upcoming Indiana Jones game is being considered for PS5.

Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer stated in a post that they are planning a business update event for the next week to share more about the future vision for Xbox.

Originally planned for later this month, alongside Hi-Fi Rush’s announcement for PS5 and Nintendo Switch, Microsoft adjusted its timeline due to increased speculation.

Datamined game assets hinted at Hi-Fi Rush’s release for PS5 and Nintendo Switch, following rumors of other Xbox games making their way to non-Xbox platforms. With the recent $68.7 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Microsoft aims to address the future of Activision Blizzard during the business update event.

There is still no information on when Activision Blizzard’s titles will be available on the Xbox Game Pass. While Microsoft has not officially confirmed bringing Xbox exclusives to PS5, the impact on sales figures remains uncertain if console-exclusive titles are ported to other consoles.

The upcoming business update event will likely shed light on Microsoft’s gaming strategy moving forward.
