Upcoming Xbox Game Reportedly Releasing on PS5 Day One
Summary
An earlier report alleged that the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase will reveal the next entry in the Doom series, and as it appears, it could be launching on more platforms than anticipated. After Microsofts 2021 acquisition of Zenimax (the parent company of id Software), many expected the next Doom game to be an Xbox and PC exclusive. Beyond Doom: The Dark Ages, Corden also reckoned that Microsoft could be gearing up to elucidate its multiplatform strategy further during the Xbox Games Showcase on June 9. There have been several rumors about more Xbox titles making the jump to PS5, including the recently released Senuas Saga: Hellblade 2, with there reportedly being "no red line" for the franchises crossing over. That means established, long-running Xbox IPs like Halo, Gears, and Forza could very well be seen on the PlayStation Store sometime in the future, and Doom: The Dark Ages launching day one on PS5 may be the first proper step towards that.
