Xbox: Microsoft's exclusive games should not copy the competition

With Halo: Infinite, Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, Starfield, Avowed, Forza Horizon 5 and Fable are already some upcoming exclusive First-Party Games by Microsoft for the Xbox consoles and the PC in development. On the other hand, PlayStation players will look forward to Horizon: Forbidden West, God of War: Ragnarok, Gran Turismo 6 and other games of Sony Interactive Entertainment.

Lots of future potential

Over the last decade, the Japanese with high-quality singleplayer adventures in the players and critics have made a name for themselves, while Microsoft's selection of First Party Titles in the last generation could not always convince completely. However, the RedMonders with Ninja Theory, Inxile Entertainment, Obsidian Entertainment, Double Fine, Playground Games and especially Bethesda Softworks have brought some experienced and well-known developers into their own home to increase the quality of exclusive titles in the coming years.

In a recent interview with GameRadar, Xbox-Haupt Phil Spencer talked about its own goals for developments. You do not want to copy Sony's action, but instead focus on your own way.

_ Our strategy is not easy to be like someone else. I am sometimes asked: where is your version of this or this game? 'I have been in this industry for a long time, I have a lot of respect for the developers on all platforms and I know a lot of them. But it's good if we do something other than other platforms ._

We are not in the business in which we only try to create a green version of the blue or red platform of another. This is not an example of creativity I want to see in the game industry. _

In the end, Xbox exclusive games should also address a different kind of player shank than the competition products of Sony Interactive Entertainment and Nintendo. To what extent the Microsoft Studios implement this requirement will be seen in the next few months and years. Strong competition should always provide better results.
