This week ushered in a bold chapter for Xbox and its pursuit of a multiplatform existence. With Forza Horizon 5 landing on PlayStation for the first time, it marks a significant milestone for the celebrated racing franchise. Technically, it’s a triumph, as many are finding that Xbox delivers a more polished experience on the PS5 Pro than on its own Series X.
This move, while stirring mixed emotions among die-hard fans of exclusivity, underscores Xbox’s commitment to broader accessibility. Microsoft is dedicated to bringing top-notch games to a wider audience, whether through their own hardware, via platforms like Steam and Battle.net on PC, or through cloud services. Now, their embrace extends confidently to PlayStation and Nintendo.
Wouldn’t it be fantastic if this openness worked both ways? While some PlayStation titles have already made their way to PC, Xbox consoles are still waiting for similar arrivals. At least we’ve seen MLB: The Show make an appearance. In an ideal scenario, what PlayStation games would you love to play on Xbox? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
For my part, a few titles come to mind immediately. I’m talking about Spider-Man Remastered, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and of course, Spider-Man 2. Even though I’ve already swung through New York on PlayStation and PC, I’d jump at the chance to do it all again on Xbox. The first Spider-Man game, in particular, holds a special place in my gaming heart.
Thinking about other possibilities, Days Gone would be intriguing to see on Xbox. It’s a game I own on PC and have enjoyed, and I think it would resonate well within the Xbox community. It offers a fresh experience distinct from State of Decay and remains an underrated gem.
Oh, and let’s not forget Gran Turismo 7—though I have a soft spot for the Forza Motorsport series, I’d be curious to take a spin.
So, that’s where I stand, but what about you? Whether it’s a beloved classic or a new release, is there something from the PlayStation camp you’d want to see on Xbox? Dive into the comments and share your wish list!
