Taul Passi: Black Myth Wukong not coming to Xbox due to an exclusivity deal

Ms has never done this! How dare Sony!

I hope for a swift acquisition of Game Science by MS in the coming months.

Again, I ask. Where is the win here regardless of why Black Myth: Wukong is delayed on Xbox? It is the same result and it's not shocking news even if PlayStation paid for it. The whole situation is weird.

Sony is actually promoting growth in the console industry. They wanted people to buy an Xbox, and then when they realize that the game is not coming to Xbox they'd buy a PlayStation. That's why the exclusivity deal was kept hush. When everyone plays, we all win! (Note: some people will have to play later)

Imran en Era also corroborates the veracity of the source.🤷

I am relatively sure I know who the source is and, yeah, it's ironclad.

It is likely not productive to assume it is a weak source. I mean, do what you want, but it is a waste of your time to do so.

Real or fake?? I don't know, but there is enough noise and controversy generated for the parties to come out and clarify the situation....🤷

Going back to what I said earlier, if Sony and GS stay silent at this point then more than likely it is true. Not sure why they didn't just announce it as a timed exclusive though. Bizarre.

You got double crow to eat, man.

You're in this thread shooting down any possibility that Sony have done a dirty here. Defending them like fuck and you are completely wrong. Like so wrong.

There has been a deal, sony are dirty as fuck and we have clear evidence of silent back door deals going down from them.

Fuck them. I'm not buying a pro now. They should have been honest and owned this shit.

Fuck all the stans defending them too. Like you.
You won't stand for dirty console war tactics. I respect that. Remember we do have that avatar bet regarding Concord going FTP in 3 months? I wonder how far I can stretch the Phil Spencer knob gobbler avatar towards the border of being pornographic...

Yeah that's what's got me so confused. You sign an exclusivity deal, but make no effort to advertise the game or entice people to buy your console to play it? I'm not even sure an exclusivity deal was needed, at least not for China specifically

Well it started from tassi and corden, what did you expect?Honestly they were all wrong so many times, including this "leaker", I don't how credible he is, not much either apprently.

Talk about cope. An exclusivity deal that allows the dev to announce a Xbox version is coming as soon as they work out the tech issues before it launches, and doesn't include exclusive marketing from Sony. Never would this happen.

What I don't get is why does Xbox care so much about this PR astroturfing shit still? Just rip off the bandaid and go 3rd party already. You just announced a big exclusive is coming to PS5 before it even launched. Your HW sales are in the shitter. Stop tormenting these fanboys like there's any hope they aren't going 3rd party eventually.

It’s really delusional that the series s cannot do splitscreen still isn’t it?


Is there split screen?
Split screen is available on PC, however it is not available on Steam Deck.

This kinda ruined my day a bit. Was willing to wait a bit but now seems it's never coming. Also, can we get a separate apology thread for all the smart ass remarks against those that said this was so based on basic comprehension skills.. Did Microsoft not say something along the lines of not being able to speak on deals made with other platforms?

Almost 500 replies… someone fill me in 🤭

Paul Tassi claims black myth is console exclusive at launch because of a deal, not any technical shortcomings.

IGN says their source corroborates the same.

An actually good journalist, Imran Khan, has also said that the source is ironclad.

And we're now waiting for the publisher to either confirm or deny this officially.

That's about it.
