The pie throwing between the two console giants continues and this time it is the upcoming, hotly awaited Silent Hill 2 remake that is in focus. Microsoft now claims that they have evidence that Sony bought up exclusive rights to the game, which means that they cannot be released on Xbox. Same alleged also apply to Final Fantasy XVI and Final Fantasy VII remake.
MS has already told CMA that Final Fantasy VII Remake cannot be released on Xbox. This is because Sony has signed an “Xbox exclusion” agreement with some third-party publishers for several games including FF VII Remake.
It’s no secret that Sony has been on the warpath since Microsoft initiated the acquisition of Activision Blizzard, something they firmly claim would hurt the gaming market. Something they themselves are just as guilty of, and where exactly this constantly escalating conflict will end, well, no one knows.
Do you think there will be any breakthrough or consensus during the year between the two parties, or will the battle escalate even more?
