Re: Yes, The Outer Worlds 2 Is Another Xbox-Developed Game Heading To PS5

1 - this is not a major game, it's an AA short Rpg that was multiplat in the first entry. It's becoming clearer that many Xbox games won't come to other plataforms (since they don't want to kill the console), it's gonna be case by case.
2 - lol at the "why would I turn on my xbox then?"comments. Are you sincerely going to buy a game on another plataform if it's being offered day one on game pass?
3 - there's zero chance the Pc will have the Xbox digital library. First because there'll be at least one or two more console generations. And second because there is a major licensing issue due to it being a different plataform, with a different store (Xbox store is not windows store), not to mention the backward compatibility and emulation problems. It's different from steam with the same store and the same hardware (Pc), just using a different format. They already did what they could: Cloud + play anywhere and that's it.
4 - this is the most logical strategy. If they're putting their games on another plataform is to sell and make money, and the best time is the launching period. An Xbox game being relesead after 3,6 or a year after on PS would either sell much less and hurt the brand/sales the same way.
