Here's five reasons why we think a multiformat future for Xbox and PlayStation is ultimately a good thing ahead of Xbox's podcast.
Contents show An end to console wars Access to all There’s already plenty of great multiformat games Frankly, it’s likely to be better for developers too It’ll keep prices competitive and fair There’s been a lot of talk in recent weeks of consoles going multiformat, that’s caused a huge amount of tension and worry in vocal sections of the gaming community – and with Xbox’s upcoming podcast, rumours ramped up that the MS brand is abandoning consoles altogether.
There’s already plenty of great multiformat games Don’t get me wrong – format exclusives have still consistently given us some of the best games of the last few years: Zelda Tears of the Kingdom and Spider-Man 2 spring to mind. But there’s plenty of great multiformat games out there too – Baldur’s Gate 3, Alan Wake 2 and Star Wars Jedi Survivor spring to mind. To a degree, we’re already in an era where multiformat is the norm – so it does feel a bit crying over spilt milk at this point.
