- A new PlayStation first-party game from a popular franchise is reportedly coming out on Xbox.
- New rumors claim that Lego Horizon Adventures is launching on Xbox before this year ends or in early 2025.
- We suggest taking these claims with a pinch of salt, as Sony has not officially confirmed them yet.
The changing console landscape has compelled gaming giants like Xbox, Sony, and Nintendo to drastically change their strategies over the years. Xbox has been the most aggressive in pursuing a new multiplatform strategy to ensure its survival. Sony has also slowly started releasing its games on PC, but it might now also be bringing them to Xbox.
New rumors now claim that Sony is preparing to release one of its new exclusives from a popular franchise on its rival platform.
Why it matters: PlayStation releasing an exclusive to Xbox from a popular IP suggests it might also adopt an aggressive multiplatform strategy in the future.
According to the Arab media outlet Justplayit, Lego Horizon Adventures is launching on Xbox in the near future. The entry is reportedly set to arrive either before this year ends or in early 2025.
Sources close to the leaker claim that Sony is trying to offset the poor performance of Lego Horizon Adventures after its launch by bringing it on more platforms.
Despite no official figure, the entry also went on a discount soon after its release, which suggests it sold poorly.
All in all, it is best to take the new report with a massive grain of salt. Sony has yet to verify these rumors in an official statement, and a veteran exec also claimed that the company doesn’t see a point in releasing titles on rival platforms—like Xbox—in the past.
Do you think Sony will launch one of its most anticipated PlayStation exclusives on Xbox so early, or are these rumors completely ungrounded? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below, or join the discussion on the official Tech4Gamers forum.
