Starfieldon PS5 is still a possibility, according toMicrosoftGaming CEOPhil Spencer.
During yesterday’s special edition of theOfficial Xbox Podcast, Spencer announced thatfour games currently exclusive to Xbox will be making their way to other consoles. He didn’t specify which titles are set to go multiplatform, but he did confirm that Starfield isn’t one of them. Fortunately, for those hoping to see Bethesda’s space-faring RPG on PS5, all is not lost.
In an interview withThe Vergefollowing the announcement, Spencer reveals he’s open to the possibility of more Xbox exclusives coming to other platforms in the future. “I don’t think we should as an industry ever rule out a game going to any other platform,” he says. “We’re focused on these four games and learning from the experience.
“We don’t have work going on on other franchises,” he continues. “But for anybody to stand up and say something’s never going to happen, I think it feels like creating more certainty in a world of gaming where you really want to respond to what customers want and what our players and creators are looking for.”
During the podcast, Spencer also confirmed thatIndiana Jones and the Great Circleisn’t part of the lineup of games Xbox is bringing to other platforms, though, like with Starfield, there’s the possibility PS5 and Switch players could get in on the action at some point in the future.
The Xbox Showcase will return in June, presumably over E3’s dead body.
