Xbox Game Studios |OT5| DOOM posting not allowed. Except for posting about DOOM

According to a ZeniMax Online Studios job posting, they’re hiring for a multi-platform MMO which lists PS4 and PS5. I do believe that MMO type games like The Elder Scrolls Online will be fully multi-platform because it makes sense to try to have the largest user base for those games.

Wonder if that was an old job posting, lol

Counterpoint, I actually kinda enjoyed Pop, as someone who doesn’t really care much for Gears of War most of the time. What bugged me about it was that I kept getting kicked from games and having to reconnect and losing because my opponent had a nice 15 to 20 seconds of me not playing. I wish they had had more single player as well. I ended up mostly just replaying the tutorials a lot, but the concept was pretty fun. If it had been a console game with a few more single player scenarios, added to game pass and wasn’t just built as a free to play micro transaction based mobile game, I think it might have lived a bit longer.

(I’m not saying a big game, more along the lines of how Plants vs Zombies was ported to console as an xbla game, along with mobile versions)

Like FF14, lol.

Seems like it’s a new current listing. As for FF 14, it wasn’t released on Xbox One back in 2014 when it released for PS4 and despite what SE has said, I don’t know why any Xbox fan/owner would ever expect it to do so especially now that it seems to be completely on fire. After all, it’s only been 7 years. I think it’s safe to say that Xbox will never see that game.

As for ZeniMax Online Studios, Microsoft could keep it exclusive but they could have also pulled Minecraft when they acquired Mojang but they didn’t. Microsoft should keep it exclusive but it wouldn’t shock me at all to see it on PS4/PS5 due to the type of game that it is.

Either way, Gears Pop is not a major or main line game and died in less than two years. It even being connected to Gears of War is an insult to the franchise that is Gears of War.

Counterpoint, is it’s not part of the job but part of the skills portion of the job listing. This would be like listing C/C++/C#/Java as skills even if the job is strictly for a C# developer. The premise being if you can develop in one language (or one platform) you should be able to develop for the other language (or platform). High skill levels in one should be transferable to others.

Go ask Microsoft to buy another studio to make you whatever you want to play next😜

I just saw the other tweets. Timur should have worded it better. Oh well. Nothing to worry about then.

FF14 never being on Xbox was my point, there is no need for PS for the next Zenimax MMO, I mean, SoT has more users than FF14 and it’s not on PS.

I know. That’s the tweet I just read a few minutes ago.

I agree. They should all be exclusive. That’s what I would do.

2023 and I think it’s something experimental set in the Gears universe.

Gears 6 for 2026

No way Gears 6 is 2026. Coalition has like over 200 people working there my guess is 2023 for this smaller game and than late 2024 for Gears 6. They have like a smaller team working on this smaller game wile the big team work on Gears 6.

Wow did not know it takes that much work to record car sound. That a lot of work they had to do major props.

You also have to take into account what fits where on the xbox release calendar right. They want like a AAA game every quarter and currently the slate for 2023 and 2024 is looking mighty full, so I can see Gears going to 2025 for the next iteration.

OK so late 2024 or early 2025 is my guess than that 2026 number is way off. Coalition is not a small dev they are a massive AAA team one of Xbox top of the line Dev.
