Gears E-Day and State of Decay 3 planned for PS5
At this point, Xbox has settled into the role of multiplatform game publisher, rather than a console platform with a library of exclusives. As a result, it is no longer a surprise when we hear that new upcoming games will arrive on PS5, but a growing trend indicates that soon, most Xbox titles will release day-one on PS5, rather than several months after launch.
MP1st has uncovered updated CVs from a number of developers working on both Gears E-Day and State of Decay 3. The updated LinkedIn listings show that both games are going to launch on PC, Xbox and PS5, indicating that Microsoft will soon move to day-and-date releases across platforms. Previously, with titles like Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, there was a rough six-month exclusivity period for Xbox and PC.
Earlier this year, Oblivion Remastered launched for Xbox, PC and PS5 simultaneously and later this year, Gears of War: Reloaded will also launch across all three platforms on day-one.
If State of Decay 3, Gears E-Day and Fable are also planned for simultaneous release across platforms, then that would indicate that Microsoft has truly thrown in the towel on having any exclusives at all. It is not just Microsoft in this position though, as recent job listings for PlayStation indicate plans to bring select games to Xbox and Nintendo Switch platforms in the future.
