The continuing will-they-won’t-they story surrounding Xbox and its plans to launch a few of its video games on rival platforms continues apace. After some doubtful on-line scuttlebutt, Microsoft’s CEO, Satya Nadella, seems to have inadvertently nullified rumours that this technique is slowing down.
A leaker who goes by eXtas1s just lately claimed that Undertaking Latitude — Xbox’s plan to launch first-party titles on Nintendo and Sony platforms — is “paused” or “slowed down”. They declare the explanation for that is the bitter response to the information that Indiana Jones and the Nice Circle is coming to PS5 shortly after the Xbox launch.
Nevertheless, Nadella, in a wider report about Microsoft’s fiscal yr 2024, appears to recommend the corporate’s method hasn’t modified. “Lastly, we introduced 4 of our fan-favorite titles to Nintendo Change and Sony PlayStation for the primary time, as we proceed to increase our content material to new platforms,” he writes, not earlier than stating Microsoft’s intention to convey “nice video games to extra folks on extra gadgets”.
The hearsay did state Undertaking Latitude hasn’t been outright cancelled, however the tempo of releases will allegedly be slower, and that Gears of Conflict and Halo are “purple strains” — seemingly saying these sequence will stay unique.
Regardless of the case, it appears as if there isn’t any “pause” on Undertaking Latitude, though it is unknown when extra Xbox titles will migrate to PS5, or which of them. If the technique is unchanged, as Nadella implies right here, we are going to possible know extra within the new yr following the arrival of Indiana Jones.
