A new document via the UK's CMA has Microsoft stating that Sony has entered what it calls "Xbox Exclusion" deals with certain game companies.
The part of the
filing that mentions this specifically lists Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Final Fantasy XVI, and even the recently announced Silent Hill 2.
I know microsoft has done the same but
Just asking here be easy on me... sony did not have any exclusive deals before in the time of Ps1, Nintendo 64, Sega? Ps2 ?
First Xbox was released after them
Chris Deering, who was Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE) Europe's boss at the time.
says that the company still wanted to embrace a broad audience, including more mature demographics. One of his core focuses was -- as with the original PlayStation -- trying to nail down as many third-party exclusives as possible. This included Tomb Raider, again, as well as Disney titles and games from Take-Two, including Grand Theft Auto and State of Emergency.
I think New IPs is normal thing for microsoft to make them exclusive from both Bethesda and Activision
lets not forget
Sony was negotiating Starfield exclusivity for PS5 before
and microsoft did say games like cod will not be exclusive just like Minecraft.
Sony just don't like Game Pass..?
