As Microsoft opts to launch at least some of its Xbox exclusives on rival consoles, the company’s gaming boss Phil Spencer has reflected on Sony’s recent, hugely-successful launch of online, cross-platform shooter Helldivers 2 on PC and PlayStation 5.
“I will say, when I look at a game like Helldivers 2 – and it’s a great game, kudos to the team shipping on PC and PlayStation – I’m not exactly sure who it helps in the industry by not being on Xbox,” Spencer told Game File. “If you try to twist yourself to say, like, somehow that benefited somebody somewhere.
“But I get it. There’s a legacy in console gaming that we’re going to benefit by shipping games and not putting them on other places. We do the same thing.”
