Shocking In-Game Reveal Sparks Controversy
There's been a wave of backlash from Xbox fans who are threatening to abandon the platform following rumors that Xbox exclusives could be making their way to PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. The controversy began when Hi-Fi Rush and Sea of Thieves were mentioned as potential games to cross over, but it appears that more titles may be added to the list.
Code Analysis Unveils Clues
While Xbox has not officially confirmed these speculations, keen-eyed gamers examining the code of Hi-Fi Rush made an interesting discovery. Hidden within the game's code were blue and red shirts that are currently unavailable in the game. As Xbox, Steam, and Epic Games Store just announced exclusive shirts, it's logical to assume that these two shirts will be exclusive to PlayStation and Nintendo.
Hi-Fi Rush's Multi-Platform Release
This finding at least confirms that Hi-Fi Rush will be coming to other platforms, although it remains unknown if additional games will follow suit. In addition to the original rumors, some sources suggest that heavy hitters like Starfield and the forthcoming Indiana Jones and the Great Circle may also be potentially released on other platforms.
Xbox Fans React
Xbox players have not taken the news well, fearing that this move signifies the end of Xbox as a console. Many see it as Microsoft scaling back its support for Xbox consoles and shifting focus to games in the future. One disgruntled user even changed their Metacritic review, expressing disappointment and accusing Xbox of neglecting their loyal fan base. Another user took to Twitter, suggesting that class action lawsuits could arise from the situation, alleging that Xbox misled and falsely advertised to consumers.
Outcry Against Change
Xbox fans are vehemently opposed to this change, despite Xbox's long-standing motto of providing more people with more ways to play. The backlash highlights the passion and dedication that fans have for the console, and their concern that Xbox's exclusivity may be compromised.
