Will Bethesda Games be Xbox Console Exclusive?

Wouldn’t it have been much better if the wording had been

“There are still some deals in place that we intend to honor, but after that all of Bethesda’s games will be exclusive to Xbox and PC players.”?

He specifically mentions new Bethesda games and how Xbox and Game Pass are the best way to play these. New games would be anything unreleased right now, including Starfield. Some new titles in the future will be exclusive.

That’s how I interpret this.

With what Zhuge said awhile ago im sure this was the point of this whole thing. Not necessarily to take away games from Playstation but moreso to boost Game Pass even more

I think Starfield, Fallout and ES6 will be the exclusive brands. The rest multiplat with a timed exclusive period.

They quite clearly have shit thats commited to coming out elsewhere like Deathloop, I swear if this causes a meltdown

The issue is they don’t mean the transition period. If that was the case why not say the future of most games will be exclusive some could mean 1 or 3

So, we still know shit other than that “some” future games will be exclusive.

So, are PS the only ones getting exclusive Bethesda games in the near future? Get outta here with that crap.

But Starfield and TES have been announced. Indiana Jones has been announced. If those were exclusive, they would have mentioned them here 100%.

Then Microsoft is the dumbest company alive for funding in house studio games to be multiplatform beyond Minecraft

Nice, can’t wait for PlayStation to sell like hot cakes and a lot of games to get moneyhatted or skip Xbox, I’m staying on PC until I see the contrary.

Because the gaming media hates Microsoft. Look at how the reaction of the Tomb Raider exclusive announcement was and compare it to the reaction of FF7R. Be vague is the best possible way to let them shut up about it. You can criticize full exclusivity if you don’t know shit.

Do I like how vague this statement is ? Definitely not. But it’s probably the best way to say it like this.

Congrats to this thread which just got a contract extension of like 4 months

Everyone needs to calm down. This is better than I was expecting…I still think some games will release on Sony (but only very few).

Yep. Two games announced for PS5. Zero for Xbox. This leadership is a complete joke.

A full generation of “just wait, the games will come” well here they are. On PS5. lol

Microsoft’s communication is terrible.

I’m with tim

Why not just say “future new titles” and drop the some then?

“Currently existing titles will be experienced best on Xbox/PC with future new titles exclusive to Xbox and PC(not counting Ghostwire/Deathloop”

That “some” word changes the whole statement. I’m remaining cautiously optimistic we get a more definitive answer on Thurs but also realistic that this might be it.

It’s Microsofts fault to be this vague.

This was nothing really, it’s the same type of info we already knew.
