Psychonaughts is March 2020, i think.

And MS usually have 2 or more launch games.

Fully expecting Forza MS to be available.

Yeah, they have a bunch of relatively small exclusives from their studio. Only Ori really appeals to me at this point, Halo as well. Wouldn't really count Psychonauts 2 at this point due to so much of the development being done independently by DF.

This isn't about exclusives, it's about XGS publishing.

2021 is likely to be the 'exclusives' list, simply by virtue of time.

Add Age of Empires 3 DE, The continued releases to MCC on PC, Forza, and maybe even Gears Tactics.

2020/21 looking damn good for XGS and who knows what other games they will sign.

That's good news. Hopefully they can continue to keep the output up, but it definitely is going to be helping them make GamePass a must-have subscription and that should help Scarlett's marketing push and adoption rate come 2020 and later.

This is what GamePass is about. In the xboxera discord we've been talking about this. MS has enough games announced right now that they can release 1 game per month next year if they wanted to...especially with knowing that there are more unannounced titles.

Phil's Xbox.

No interest in any of those except maybe Tell Me Why, but E3 should be good to see what they've got planned for the Scarlett years. I want to see some bigger projects, like Fable 4.

Sony was doing this before the launch of the PS4 and they also had PS+ which was giving amazing value at the time all while Microsoft was looking greedy and anti consumer. Seems Microsoft and Sony have swapped positions and Microsoft are the ones with the good will going into the next gen while Sony looks like the one offering less value, being anti consumer and shaking up their execs. Amazing how things have changed in 6 short years.

I had no idea Wasteland was getting remastered, but I'll take that along with Wasteland 3, Halo Infinite and Tell Me Why as games I'm interested in from that list.
