All upcoming 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Game Studios titles are now in development exclusively for the current-gen Xbox Series X, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft has confirmed.

"We’ve moved on to gen 9," 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Game Studios head Matt Booty tells , referring to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series X and S. Booty confirms that outside of support for older ongoing titles like Minecraft, first-party development on Xbox One🐟 is done. Instead, Microsoft plans to "maintain support" for the older platform purely through cloud gaming options, which do allow you to play Series X games on Xbox One.

Prior to this, almost every first-party Xbox Series X game has also la✨unched on Xbox One, from Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5 to Grounded and Minecraft Legends. The most notable exception is Microsoft Flight Simulator, a game that pushed even the most high-end PCs to their absolute limits. Microsoft still has a less powerful piece of hardware to scale its games back for with Series S, but it seems current-gen games will soon have a lot more room to meet their next-gen potential.

The transition between generations has been a particularly slow one this time around, and not just for Xbox. Even first-party graphical showpieces on PS5, like God of War Ragnarok and Horizon Forbidden West, have launched with PS4 versions💜, too. Whether due to the years-long supply shortages for both consoles or some other reason, many studios - both first and third-party - ha🦩ve kept the old-gen alive much longer than usual.

There is, of course, a cost for next-gen ambꦉitions - development time. Booty acknowledges that modern triple-A game development cycles, which used to be two or three years, are ballooning to "four and five and six year" timelin☂es. "There are higher expectations. The level of fidelity that we're able to deliver just goes up."

These are the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming Xbox Series X games you should know about.
