One of the things that caught the most attention at Gamescom 2024 was the confirmation that an Xbox exclusive game would be coming to Sony’s console. Many fans were shocked to see thatIndiana JonesPS5 version was a reality.
On social media, many X users lashed out at Phil Spencer, accusing him of lying to Microsoft users about exclusives supposedly not coming to other platforms. In response, some users clarified that Spencer might not have lied when he previously addressed this issue. This could affect the reputation of the company.
Indiana Jones PS5 Version Makes Fans Question Phil Spencer’s Words
Despite Microsoft and most of its leading executives strongly denying that more exclusives would come to other platforms, the recent Gamescom 2024 event only confirmed all the rumors that had been circulating on social media in recent months.
The fact that theIndiana JonesPS5 version is now a realitycaused many Xbox fans to lose faith entirely in Phil Spencer and other executives who had, in their eyes, literally lied to the community.
“It was deceptive corporate speak”: Xbox Fans Are Not Happy With Phil Spencer’s Previous Comments Claiming That Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Wouldn’t Come To PS5
The head of Xbox had to address the controversy that surrounded the company following the confirmation of games likeHi-Fi RushandSea of Thieves‘ release on other platforms.
The fact is, when he said this, he absolutely knew Indiana Jones WAS coming to PS5. He also knew Starfield will absolutely be coming to PS5 because you don’t just click a button that says “port to PS5” & it’s job done.
He said the company would launch more exclusives on other consoles for now. Unfortunately, this seemed to be untrue, as the game featuring the most famous archaeologist will also land on Sony’s console.
Once Again, Microsoft’s Strategy Angers The Community
There has been anticipation for a long time, but now that games likeDoom: The Dark Agesand others will also be available on PS5, it’s likely that Xbox will shift its focus away from exclusive titles.
This company’s future appears to be more focused on making games sell on as many platforms as possible rather than continuing to push hardware sales, which has not been particularly successful for Microsoft.
If this continues in the coming years, Xbox may become more of an accessory, with the brand focusing on releasing games to maximize sales while continuing to make Game Pass a valuable service for housing all kinds of important games.
“You have to do the work to make that feel like a good investment”: Jeff Grubb Rejects Phil Spencer’s Comments On Xbox Exclusives Like Indiana Jones Going To PS5
The company’s strategy has been constantly shifting in recent years due to stagnant service user numbers and sales not meeting projected targets.
Users on platforms like X are angry, claiming that Spencer knew about the PS5 release ofIndiana Jonesbut decided to play along to reassure players about exclusivity.
Unfortunately, Microsoft platform players continue to receive bad news, further damaging the brand’s reputation and failing to establish the player loyalty that existed in the past. This could become a pivotal moment for the company and its players.
