Xbox just yeeted its multiplatform era into the trash and is speedrunning a return to box-exclusive releases, which is wild given the 3,200 layoffs on the horizon. Chief Content Officer Matt Booty confirmed Gears of War E-Day and Clockwork Revolution will lead the charge, though the selection framework behind which titles stay locked to the hardware remains opaque to players.
Booty also pushed back on the idea that single-player automatically means exclusive, noting Xbox stewards over 20 billion-dollar franchises that each serve different portfolio roles. Heavy hitters like The Elder Scrolls VI and Fallout 5 could still land on PS5, and Halo is already making its Sony debut with Campaign Evolved.
Speaking of Halo, insider Rebs Gaming claims the studio has zero titles actively being built after both Project Ekur and the planned single-player follow-up got axed. The original three-games-in-three-years roadmap is reportedly dead, squads are rushing to pitch fresh concepts, and even the rumored Halo 2 and 3 remakes look shaky as the studio mulls DLC for Campaign Evolved instead.
