Microsoft lists a seriously substantial number of PlayStation Showcase 2023 titles that are also slated to release for its Xbox consoles. Microsoft uncovered which titles presented during the May 2023 PlayStation Showcase will also be coming to Xbox.
This affirmation of multi-stage accessibility showed up just as Sony finished up its drawn-out broadcast, which offered a first glimpse at Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 gameplay, among many different things.
However, the 2023 PlayStation Showcase unsurprisingly included various exclusives, many games shown at the May 24 occasion were also currently generally reputed to be coming to both Xbox and PC. The occasional trailer even referenced PC accessibility, as was the case with the hotly anticipated Helldivers 2 declaration.
However other promos were less approaching. For instance, the teaser for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater just finished with a “coming to PS5” snippet, causing some confusion among the fan. Microsoft subsequently went online to explain that Metal Gear Solid Delta and almost twelve different titles highlighted at the May 24 PlayStation Showcase are also slated to release on Xbox.
“What a gorgeous gathering,” the organization composed on Twitter while sharing a picture encompassing around 33% of the PlayStation Showcase 2023 titles, which are all also en route to Xbox consoles. The carefree tweet underlines some of the new fan criticism coordinated at the occasion, which posited that the PS5 is still too light on exclusives for a system that is approaching its third anniversary.

While that can also be said for the Xbox Series X/S, Microsoft’s contemporary publishing strategy is fundamentally geared toward huge-scale ecosystem development, with the organization treating PC, Xbox consoles, and Xbox Cloud Gaming-supported platforms as equals. That approach made multi-stage accessibility the default choice for Microsoft’s games, whereas Sony is still considerably more reliant upon console exclusives to keep up with its portion of the overall industry.
However the list of PlayStation Showcase 2023 titles that are also coming to Xbox even includes extraction shooter Long distance race from Bungie, a subsidiary of Sony. Notwithstanding, that is reasonable because the advancement of the game was at that point well in progress when Sony obtained Bungie as much as $3.6 billion in July 2022.
The rest of Microsoft’s recently shared list is undeniably less surprising, as it mostly consists of indies, sequels to non-exclusive games, and new installments in historically multi-stage series such as Assassin’s Creed Mirage, Dragon’s Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2, Ghostrunner 2, and The Talos Principle 2.
While Microsoft’s publishing strategy suggests that most of its impending Xbox Showcase will be focused on multi-stage games as well, it’s still dubious whether many of the titles included at the forthcoming occasion will also be coming to the PS5.
The following Xbox Showcase is scheduled to occur on June 11, starting at 10 am PST.
