Xbox boss Phil Spencer has stated that future livestreams and showcases from Microsoft shall feature PlayStation and Nintendo logos when they’re relevant. Talking to XboxEra, Spencer explained that the company wants to be “honest and transparent about where the games are” shipping. So, when Microsoft streams its presumed Xbox Games Showcase in the summer, you’ll know there and then if a PS5 port is planned.

Spencer says the Xbox team actually had this discussion last year when planning its June livestream, but it couldn’t get all the assets ready in time once the decision had been made. As such, DOOM: The Dark Ages was announced for PS5 immediately after the digital event.

“I just want to be transparent with people — for shipping on Nintendo Switch, we’re gonna put that,” Phil Spencer said. “For shipping on PlayStation, on Steam… people should know the storefronts where they can get our games, but I want people to be able to experience our Xbox community in our games and everything we have to offer, on every screen we can.”

If the latest rumours and suggestions are anything to go by, Microsoft could well be using a lot of PlayStation logos in its trailers this year. Forza Horizon 5, Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, and Age of Mythology: Retold are confirmed for PS5 already and will be released in the coming months. Besides them, ports of Halo: The Master Chief Collection, Gears of War, and Senua’s Sage: Hellblade II have been heavily rumoured. Microsoft already has future titles like DOOM: The Dark Ages and The Outer Worlds 2 announced for Sony’s current-gen system.
