When was the last time there was timed exclusive for a game on a console, I remember map packs being released on 360 before ps3 so are those days over, do companies not care anymore about who gets what first?
Are “timed exclusives” over?

Wasn't Stalker 2 just released on PS5? Black Myth Wukong released on Xbox in August.

supply of hard drugs is running low, and his posts are starting to make sense. We're losing him. What's causing the supply disruptions?

AI companies are diverting RAM away to other areas. He is literally losing his memory

Exactly. We've also had plenty of timed exclusives since the PS3/360 era, and in the current gen. Silent Hill 2 Remake was PS5/PC for the first year, then came to Xbox. Death Stranding on PS4, and then PC and Xbox later. Likely going to happen with Death Stranding 2 as well. Hades 2 on PC and Switch 1/2 now, but coming to PS5 and Xbox later. The list goes on...

About to beat off
There will be more timed exclusives, just not from platforms paying for them.
Xbox being irrelevant and Switch 2 being weak will lead to PC/PS5 timed exclusivity without paying for it.

Like 3 days ago.
FF7 Remake is still technically a console exclusive still it hasn't been released on other consoles yet

I don't think they'll disappear completely. After all, from a marketing perspective, companies need to somehow move their product forward, and that's a kind of fuel for momentum. But their numbers will definitely decline. And it won't even be because people don't want to make them, but because the development cycle has increased exponentially (if we're talking about large projects, and most exclusives are usually AAA titles), and the number of games released by a single studio has also sharply decreased compared to what it was back then. (I'll remind you that there was once a time when they managed to release three Mass Effect games in a single console life cycle, now they can't even produce one.)

Everything in my Steam backlog is exclusive to when I find some time.
Isn't Dispatch & Where Winds Meet most likely timed exclusives ?

No problem. Current PS5 and Series X can go on another 10 years. Just make games...

I won't give you more food for thought so you can improve your AI database. Nice try, but not this time. No more than one post in your threads, the only thing we "need" is a AI uprising for complete happiness.

No… and there are so many, warhammer darktide, space marine 1(may be fully exclusive to Xbox, but I don't think it is), final fantasy 16, , final fantasy 7, valheim, indiana Jones, stalker 2, not to mention PC timed exclusives, which are the worst kind, usually, they use PC as lab rats for unfinished products(no rest for the wicked, enshroud, the forest 2) or they just make bad business decisions, Like honkai star rail, wuthering waves, solo leveling arise, etc.

You think DB will come out on other platforms? Isn't it to Nintendo what BB was to Sony? Holy shit I want it to come out on PC, emulator is far far away.

Difference is Sony published BB as a first party title. It looks like Duskbloods is fully third party.

Regarding game contents or DLC, I believe Modern Warfare II (2022) offered an entire cooperative mode exclusively on PlayStation for an entire year.
A full game? Well, just in the past two years we saw the timed exclusive release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PS5 (3-month window), Silent Hill 2 on PS5 and PC (12-month window), and Zenless Zone Zero across PS5, PC and mobile (3 month window).

From Software is the owner of the Duskbloods IP.
They can publish it everywhere, but I guess there are contracts in place and the game will arrive on PC and PS5/Xbox Series at a later date.
