The hosts couldn’t help but ask: if more titles are going multiplatform, why should gamers still consider buying an Xbox console? Phil’s response was thoughtful: “I want people to pick hardware based on the capabilities of that hardware and the choices that they want to make about where they want to play. We want our hardware to win based on the capabilities that we have… hardware critical and fundamental to what Xbox is – not trying to gatekeep the games off different places.” It’s refreshing to hear such honesty from a big-name executive!
This certainly marks a new chapter for Xbox. The year 2025 looks promising for fans as titles like Avowed, DOOM: The Dark Ages, South of Midnight, The Outer Worlds 2, and possibly Fable, are lined up for release. If you’ve been waiting for something special from this gaming giant, your patience might pay off soon.
