Phil Spencer explained a few days ago in an interview that they will maintain the support of Xbox One after the launch of Xbox Series X for at least two more years. This means that the games of Xbox Games Studios that come from now until 2022 you can enjoy them on Xbox One or Xbox Series X without any inconvenience. From Microsoft they have reiterated that they do not want to leave anyone behind with the generation change, so it is logical this approach that offers players two more years of support for their console.
This does not mean that any game is released exclusively for Xbox Series X, Phil Spencer explained They will continue for at least a couple of years to launch everything on both machines, but he also wanted to explain that if any studio plans to launch a game exclusively for Xbox Series X, it will have their full support.
Xbox Series X and exclusive games
What you will see on the 23rd is that we are giving our studios maximum creative freedom to build the games they imagine. As you know, in the past few years we have added many studios to the Xbox Game Studios, giving them financial stability, creative freedom, and the ability to develop what they want, and our developers want to create games that reach the widest possible audience.
So when you hear Matt Booty talk about this or our developers will tell you that we have a vision for every game and our vision starts from the player, not from the device. If a developer comes up to us and says, “No, I just want to focus on the next generation,” we will be fully open and for it. If, on the other hand, a developer wants to reach more audiences on multiple platforms, we will also be in favor of this.
Since Xbox Games Studios began to grow in recent years, Microsoft has always defended total freedom so that it is they who decide how their game should be. At the moment the support is guaranteed, but if a study considers that their experience can only be possible on Xbox Series X there will be no impediment on the part of the company for this to take place, the developers will choose at all times the way to follow. I play like The Medium o Scorn are examples of what has been explained in this news, both studios have wanted to develop their game only for the new console.
