After weeks of rumors, Microsoft says four games are going to “other consoles”

After weeks of rumors around its strategy regarding Xbox console exclusives, Microsoft announced today that it is "going to take four games to the other consoles." The company stopped short of announcing what those now non-exclusive games would be, but it did point out that neither Starfield nor Bethesda's upcoming Indiana Jones and the Great Circle would be appearing on other consoles.

All four of the soon-to-be multi-platform titles are "over a year old," Xbox chief Phil Spencer said in an "Updates on the Xbox Business" podcast video. The list includes a couple of "community-driven" that are "first iterations of a franchise" that could show growth on non-Xbox consoles, as well as two others that Spencer said were "smaller games that were never really meant to be built as kind of platform exclusives... I think there is an interesting story for us of introducing Xbox franchises to players on other platforms to get them more interested in Xbox."

The Verge cites "sources familiar with Microsoft's plans" in reporting that Hi-Fi Rush, Pentiment, Sea of Thieves, and Grounded are the four multi-platform titles Microsoft is referencing today.
