Xbox Game Studios head Matt Booty says Microsoft hasn't made a decision on a PlayStation release for The Outer Worlds 2.
During his cross examination for today's trial between Microsoft/Activision Blizzard and the Federal Trade Commission, Booty was asked a series of questions about PlayStation releases for Bethesda games following Microsoft's acquisition of ZeniMax. An FTC lawyer asked about the already-released PlayStation versions of games like Deathloop, Ghostwire: Tokyo, and The Outer Worlds, as Booty clarified that Bethesda already had commitments to release those games on PlayStation prior to the acquisition.
But when asked if Obsidian's upcoming Outer Worlds 2 would be an Xbox exclusive now that those commitments are over, Booty said a "decision has not been made" one way or the other. The Xbox Game Studios head went on to say that Microsoft tends to commit to communities on other platforms that already exist for franchises. Meaning, since the original The Outer Worlds launched on PlayStation, it's possible Xbox may keep that franchise around on Sony's console.
