Xbox Aims for More Day-One PS5 Drops, But Not Every Title Will Be Ready

Xbox Game Studios chief Craig Duncan says the team wants to reach more players with day-one releases on PS5 and other platforms, but development realities and resource limits mean further consistency will take time. Some games will launch on all platforms at once when feasible, others may debut first on Xbox or PC (Grounded 2 is cited as PC-first), and titles like Fable are expected for day-one PS5 while Forza Horizon 6 isn’t planned for PS5 at launch in 2026. The goal is to be more consistent over time, but decisions will remain case by case.
