It's seemingly selling faster than Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, Ninja Gaiden 4 and The Outer Worlds 2 did in a week, but the analysis says that this performance is "not fantastic for a port of the biggest Bethesda RPG in a decade".Read the full article on purexbox.com

Xbox Raises Eyebrows By Mentioning 'Exclusives' On The Series X|S Dashboard

Update: It was spotted last year as well.Earlier today, we reported on a rumour about Xbox apparently having "very big discussions" about how to handle exclusivity going forward, and at the same time, fans have been spotting a reference to "exclusives" on the Xbox Series X|S dashboard that's been raising a few eyebrows over on social media.A few hours ago, someone highlighted on Twitter/X how they'd seen the reference to exclusives as part of a "day one releases" ad for Xbox Game Pass, mentioning how you could play Forza Horizon 6 "as well as Xbox exclusives".Read the full article on purexbox.com
