New Bethesda Games Going To Other Platforms On Case By Case Basis

The statement came via a tweet by Jason Schreier. Which ultimately doesn’t really say much in terms of certainty on whether future Bethesda games will be available on PlayStation. But it means a lot for those who plan to own an Xbox, as it means many of the publisher’s new games will be available on its Game Pass. PC will probably be safe, since Microsoft is pretty big on PC anyway.

Future Bethesda games will be on Xbox, PC, and “other consoles on a case by case basis.” https://t.co/Agyttr53LO — Jason Schreier (@jasonschreier) September 21, 2020 But for what it’s worth, a number of upcoming PS5 timed exclusives will remain exclusives. There are two prominent ones published by Bethesda, which are Deathloop and Ghostwire: Tokyo. Schreier’s tweet says that Xbox will honour their exclusivity commitments. On a side note, the Bethesda acquisition by Microsoft also means the former’s “largest engine overhaul since Oblivion”. The statement came from Todd Howard on the company’s blog. Which also ultimately remains a mystery as to whether it’s a good or a bad thing for The Elder Scrolls VI and Starfield. Ultimately, the company has been using the same, albeit improved, version of the same engine for every Elder Scrolls and Fallout game. Which goes to explain the jankiness of Fallout 76.
