The names of four games that were exclusive to Microsoft’s Xbox but will soon be available on the Nintendo Switch and Sony PlayStation5, have been confirmed.
The four games are: Pentiment, Hi-Fi RUSH, Grounded and Sea of Thieves. This announcement follows news earlier in the month that four previously Xbox exclusive games will be available on other platforms.
Pentiment from Obsidian Entertainment is a critically acclaimed and award-winning narrative adventure game with a striking visual style inspired by history. It will be coming to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch on February 22.
Hi-Fi RUSH, the award-winning and beloved rhythm-based action game where the world syncs to the music from Tango Gameworks/Bethesda Softworks, will be coming to PlayStation 5 on March 19 at midnight UTC, with pre-purchase available on PlayStation 5 digital storefronts on February 22.
Grounded – also from Obsidian Entertainment – is a co-op survival adventure phenomenon that has welcomed 20 million players into the backyard, and will be coming to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch on April 16. Cross play will be supported across Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch and PC.
Sea of Thieves, the shared world adventure game from Rare, will be coming to PlayStation 5 on April 30 – and will be available to wishlist by PlayStation 5 players starting February 22. Having built a passionate community of more than 35 million players from around the world, the support of cross play for Xbox, PlayStation and PC will allow players to experience epic pirate adventures with friends on more platforms.
Separately, Nintendo has announced details of some new games that will be coming to the console soon, including a new Endless Ocean game, Monster Hunter Stories, and a remake of 2010 hit Epic Mickey. This will be welcome news to Switch fans, as the upcoming game roster was looking a little bare for 2024 as many developers are focusing on making games for the upcoming Switch 2.
