Microsoft’s Xbox is experiencing a sales decline, which has forced the company to make titles that would otherwise be exclusive to Xbox available on all platforms. This has also led to many fans and loyalists wondering if it is even worth buying the console anymore.

Fans vouching for Xbox or PlayStation is nothing new. Both giants have dominated the gaming industry for an extended period, and you can find loyalists of each one everywhere. However, looking at the recent trends, it seems that Xbox has started to lag behind.

One of the biggest reasons why Xbox has been scrutinized recently is the concept of exclusive titles. Both Xbox andPlayStationrelease games that are exclusive to that specific console. However, Microsoft is moving away from this strategy as new games that could be exclusive to Xbox are also being released on PC and PlayStation simultaneously.
TheupcomingIndiana Jones and the Great Circle,which many believed would be exclusive to Xbox, is confirmed to be released on PC and PlayStation as well.

If the latest model of both consoles comes at the same price and there are fewer exclusive titles for Xbox, why would anyone buy it? Furthermore, a recent sensation likeBlack Myth Wukong,already released on PC and PlayStation, is far from being released on Xbox despite being confirmed for it.
Could Microsoft’s Heavy Purchases in Recent Years Be the Reason for the Change in Xbox’s Strategy?
Many believe that Microsoft’s drastic changes in how it approaches Xbox games might be due to its significant spending habits and making bold moves without sufficient planning. In particular,the purchase of Activision Blizzardin 2022 has left a lot of people scratching their heads.

Microsoft spent a staggering $68.7 billion to buy Activision Blizzard. Obviously, Activision Blizzard is a significant player in the gaming industry, but many believe it might not be worth the money in the end. Furthermore, not releasingXboxexclusives anymore might be due to Microsoft’s attempt to recoup some cash.
It would be interesting to see Microsoft’s next move and how it drives Xbox forward. Cloud gaming is expected to play a big role in the coming years, and maybe that will be the direction Microsoft moves in.
