Xbox’s content strategy remains contentious
Recently, this point has become more contentious. With Indiana Jones coming to PlayStation sometime early next year, fans are again questioning Xbox’s strategy. Our own exec editor Jez Corden created a poll asking gamers how they felt about exclusive games.
Almost 55% of respondents indicated that they care about whether Xbox has exclusive games, and I count myself among that group. Although a poll posted on X may not be scientific or definitive evidence, it still reflects something meaningful about the current atmosphere surrounding Xbox’s messaging and decisions.
Hours before this latest Xbox message hit socials, Jez had posted another poll, asking if fans were leaving Xbox. Here, only 46% of gamers said they haven’t left Xbox.
Excluding whatever PlayStation or PC gamers answered this, 26.5% of gamers have claimed they’re either leaving soon or waiting to see. What that waiting to see could potentially mean multiple things to players, but I’m willing to bet a decent amount of change that some of them are waiting to see what Xbox’s exclusivity strategy will be.
