Microsoft's PS5 strategy is paying off – but for how long?


Microsoft continues to bring more Xbox games to PS5 and it's seen early success. But how long will it last?

Microsoft remains undeterred by the backlash it received from some fans, as it recently announced that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, an exclusive Xbox desperately needed, won’t stay solely on its platform for long. It feels like only a matter of time before other marquee Xbox titles, like Starfield, Forza Horizon 5 – which was heavily rumored to be announced for PS5 – and even Halo make their way to Sony’s platform. Microsoft hasn’t even tried to bring in prospective customers with an Xbox Series Slim, while Sony has shrunk its console and released accessories such as the PSVR 2 and PlayStation Portal, albeit with mixed results.
