It appears that future Bethesda titles will indeed be exclusive to “platforms where the Game Pass exists,” according to Xbox boss Phil Spencer.
Speaking at today’s Xbox and Bethesda Roundtable, Spencer essentially reiterated what he said earlier this week regarding whether the new Zenimax Media games will be cross-platform.
The company will always meet current contractual obligations such as those with Sony for Ghostwire: Tokyo and Death Loop.
“We have games that exist on other platforms, and we’re going to support those games on the platforms they’re on,” Spencer said. “There are communities of actors, and we love those communities and we will continue to invest in them, and even in the future, there could be things that have contractual things or a legacy on different platforms.
“But if you’re an Xbox customer, what I want you to know is that it’s all about bringing you great, exclusive games that ship to platforms where Game Pass exists, and that. is our goal. This is why we are doing this, this is the root of this partnership that we are building, and the creative capacity that we can bring to market for Xbox customers will be the best it has ever been for Xbox.
So, to repeat, games that are currently available on platforms other than Xbox, like Doom Eternal and The Elder Scrolls Online, will continue to be supported, and future games will likely only be available on platforms. Forms feature Xbox Game Pass, which shouldn’t come as a surprise.
As for new upcoming games from Bethesda and other studios in the family, no news was dropped during the roundtable; however, Microsoft and Bethesda have said more information will be revealed in a storefront slated for this summer.
Maybe by then we’ll finally hear more about Starfield, but probably not The Elder Scrolls 6 as it’s coming out after the sci-fi title. We could be wrong because we’re not too good at guessing things which is why we never play on the track.
