Xbox chief Phil Spencer has confirmed that more of Microsoft\u2019s own games will be coming to other platforms, like the PS5 and Nintendo Switch. Microsoft revealed earlier this year that four Xbox-exclusive games<\/a> were launching on PS5 and some on Nintendo Switch, with fans left wondering if it would only be four titles or if there are more to come. Spencer took the opportunity to clear up that mystery in an interview with IGN<\/em><\/a> <\/em>yesterday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u201cOur commitment to our Xbox customers is you\u2019re going to get the opportunity to buy or subscribe to the game, and we\u2019re going to support the game on other screens,\u201d said Spencer. \u201cYou are going to see more of our games on more platforms, and we just see that as a benefit to the franchises that we\u2019re building, and we see that from players, and the players love to be able to play.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The confirmation of more games coming to rival platforms comes months after Spencer denied there was a change to Microsoft\u2019s strategy of Xbox exclusives. \u201cWe made a decision that we\u2019re going to take four games to the other consoles, just four games. Not a change to our fundamental exclusive strategy,\u201d said Spencer in an Xbox podcast<\/a> earlier this year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Microsoft unveiled a collection of new Xbox games during its big showcase event last night, with Doom: The Dark Ages<\/em><\/a> and Gears of War: E-Day<\/em><\/a> the big new \u201cworld premiere\u201d titles. One word Microsoft didn\u2019t use all night was exclusive, though. It\u2019s something I\u2019ve noticed the company has been avoiding for months now. Microsoft-owned Arkane Lyon unveiled its Blade <\/em>game<\/a> late last year at the Game Awards, and there was no mention of exclusivity for Xbox. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n We also got a first look<\/a> at Bethesda\u2019s new Indiana Jones and the Great Circle<\/em> game earlier this year, and while Xbox and PC were confirmed as launch platforms, there was no mention of exclusivity. I understand Microsoft has been weighing up launching<\/a> Indiana Jones<\/em> on PS5 several months after the planned launch for Xbox later this year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n IGN <\/em>didn\u2019t press Spencer further on the Xbox multiplatform plans, and Microsoft largely avoided the elephant in the room during its showcase by never mentioning rival platforms. Instead, it focused on a barrage of game trailers that resulted in one of the best Xbox showcases I\u2019ve seen in years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
