Xbox Explains What Makes A Game An Xbox Exclusive

Xbox Explains What Makes A Game An Xbox Exclusive https://ift.tt/sm0uLIE Amidst mass layoffs and increasing hardware prices , one of the other side effects of the Xbox "reset" is a renewed focus on console exclusives. While we know that Gears of War: E-Day and Clockwork Revolution will only be available on Xbox Series X|S and PC, they won't be the only two exclusives landing on those platforms. "I can assure you, Gears of War: E-Day and Clockwork Revolution are not the only titles we're planning," chief strategy officer Matthew Ball said to GamesRadar . "To grow a platform like ours, you have to have exclusive games and services. These are not going to be the only two titles.
