Microsoft’s gaming head Phil Spencer also discussed this on the Xbox podcast. Phil Spencer also answered if Starfield and Indiana Jones will be Xbox Exclusive, or whether they will be released on PS5 and Nintendo Switch.

Why is Xbox Releasing Games On Other Platforms?

The main reason behind releasing games on other consoles is to find new audiences for those games. Xbox wants to invest in those four games more, they also want to see whether they will perform well in other hardware. 

According to Phill in the next ten years the games that are exclusive to one piece of hardware, are going to be a smaller part of the game industry.

What are the 4 Xbox Games that will be released on PS5 and Switch?

These 4 Xbox games will be released on PS5 and Nintendo Switch.

Hi-Fi Rush is a rhythm-based action game that was first released as an Xbox Exclusive on Jan 2023. The game is going to be released on PS5 first, data-miners find proof that confirms the game release. As per gamers Hi-Fi Rush now also has full DualSense support.

Pentiment is a role-playing adventure game. The game was released on Xbox and PC in November 2022. Both Pentiment and Hi-Fi Rush will be the first two games to be released on rival consoles PS5 & Switch.

Sea of Thieves, the game initially released in 2018 on Xbox and PC. The game got positive feedback from gamers and critics. Sea of Thieves is not going to be released on other consoles very soon.

Grounded, a survival action game will also be released on PS5 and Switch.

Are Starfield and Indiana Jones Coming To PS5?

No, Starfield and Indiana Jones aren’t going to be released on PS5 and Switch. Starfield and Indiana Jones will stay as Xbox exclusive. Xbox is still skeptical about releasing games on rival consoles that’s why they are waiting to see the response of those 4 games. But as per Phil Spencer, they don’t want to lift up the expectations of other hardware users. Don’t think that more games will be released on your hardware.

Sony is thought to sell more than 25 Million units by the end of March 31, 2025. But now they expect to sell only 21 Million units. PS5 sales were lower than expected. They sold only 8.2 Million units during the third quarter which ended on December 31, 2023. Surprisingly in the third quarter of 2022, they sold 7.1 Million units, which they didn’t expect. 

According to Bloomberg, Naomi Matsuoka senior vice president at Sony said “Looking ahead, PS5 will enter the latter stage of its life cycle.” After seeing the sales they are expecting the annual sales of PS5 to fall from the next fiscal year, which will start from April 2024 and end in March 2025. 

Sony spent a lot on promoting the PS5, but it didn’t help them much. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 sold 2.5 Million copies in the first 24 hours, which is why Sony expected better sales in the third quarter. Sony is now definitely looking to make PlayStation 6. The main reason for PS5’s low sales is “Not enough Games”, PS5 doesn’t have big good games such as PS4. The only popular game from PS5 yet is Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. 

If we look at the release of other PlayStations, the PS4 was released in 2013, and Seven years later in 2020, the PS5 was released. We can expect PS6 to be released in 2027 or before 2027.
