I’m not sure it’ll drop on next gen immediately. CD Projekt Red said the PS5/XboxX version it wouldn't be ready for next gen launch a few months ago when they said it would be in Xbox’s Smart Delivery program. It’ll come eventually though.

This delay will most likely put Cyberpunk 2077 near the launch of both Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. Even though CD Projekt Red has confirmed Cyberpunk 2077 will be coming to next-gen consoles and owners of the Xbox One version will be upgraded to Xbox Series X for free, it has not committed to when these new versions will be available.

It's a dance for sure. It seems like a Twilight Princess or Breath of the Wild situation.

Now the question is...does it get delayed again? Not putting it past 2020 to take this game from everyone.

I definitely feel like this game would make my OG Xbox One or PS4 explode. It has to be huge.

It won't get delayed again...

Anyone excited for Spelunky 2 tomorrow? I tried for a few hours to get into the original game, but it didn't take.

I realized I have money so I bought a bunch of games, including Kentucky Route Zero and Outer Wilds, both of which I'm very excited for.

Spelunky was a great PS+ game--loads of fun but never felt like I got good or was really invested in it. Would be interested to play the sequel if it shows up on PS+ next year.

I was very intrigued by Outer Wilds, but found the controls maddening. Maybe I'll get back to it someday...

Thank you for not pointing out I put this in the wrong thread.

Microsoft is buying ZeniMax Media, the parent company of Bethesda. Looks like Bethesda is now with Team Green. That's a whopper of a news story for a Monday morning.

I'm not sure if Bethesda games will be exclusives in the future. Many Microsoft owned studios/companies are bringing games to other platforms.

Only Mojang has. All the other studios Microsoft owns have been exclusive. Some of the second party exclusives like Ori and Cuphead have though.

I wasn't clear. I was referring to Deathloop and Ghostwire still coming to PS5. And Microsoft games being available on other platforms via GamePass (Android).

I bet the "case by case" approach is a wait and see approach too. If PS5 outsells Xbox Series 2:1 or 3:1, surely it makes sense to release future Bethesda games on it, right?

Possibly, but if you’re Microsoft, don’t you want a Starfield exclusive? Plus, these games are coming to PC too, so they’re tapping into that market regardless.

Do you think Microsoft will force Bethesda to improve their RPG game engine?

They sure as hell have the money to do it now.

5M people subscribed to Game Pass in the last 6 months. That’s wild.
