Phil Spencer on larger first-party games from Japan:

"Japanese game creators are part of Xbox Game Studios. There are titles that can not be announced yet, but we are developing new games in cooperation with Japanese studios

 

[ByWatterson]

Where does he say exclusives?

And this statement could be true if he was just talking about Tango.

Also he's a persistent liar.

Spoiler: spoiler

Stole the title from Resetera

[adamsapple]

Get someone to work on a Lost Odyssey 2, Phil.

 

[Beer Baelly]

 

[Robb]

More stuff like Hi-Fi Rush, please!

There's at least a Ghostwire 2 somewhere down the pipeline going by the leaked docs.

 

[Danjin44]

Get someone to work on a Lost Odyssey 2, Phil.

The question is will they bring Mistwalker/Sakaguchi to make it, or bring someone else.

 

[Little Chicken]

They could start by acknowledging that a large portion of their fantasy wants the Lost Odyssey franchise to continue...

 

[SenkiDala]

There's at least a Ghostwire 2 somewhere down the pipeline going by the leaked docs.

The first one had a lot of potential, I finished it on PS5 (the DLC too), I'd be happy to have a sequel.

Yeah I saw that too. I haven’t finished the first one yet, been jumping in and out between other games, but I’ve enjoyed what I’ve played thus far.

I liked Hi-Fi Rush a lot more though, couldn’t put that one down!

Yeah, I think the games success might make them rethink their priorities. With both HF Rush and all versions of Ghostwire being out, Tango currently do not have any announced projects. Who knows what they could be working on right now.

Hi-Fi Rush might still be my favorite game this year.

 

[havoc00]

scalebound back in the menu lads?

 

[Robb]

Yeah, I personally hope they keep branching out from the horror genre and make more new IP’s. They seem to have a great/talented team over there.

Hi-Fi Rush might still be my favorite game this year.

It’s definitely one of mine!

 

[TheUndeadGamer]

So they couldn’t even put a logo up of these exclusive games during their conference?

 

[near]

Overdose by KojiPro and probably another Tango game, save yourself some heartbreak.

Edit:

The question is will they bring Mistwalker/Sakaguchi to make it, or bring someone else.

Cry On.

 

[Hudo]

Scalebound.

 

[Salz01]

This doesn’t mean shit. Deals fall through all the time. Scalebound…….

 

[Kilau]

Will 3rd party exclusive deals from Japanese devs become a good thing then?

 

[Varteras]

So he didn't say exclusive then? That was just ResetEra, of course, putting their own words in there?

 

[Fake]

 

[LordCBH]

Where Lost Odyssey 2?


Also, do Japanese companies keep up with Xbox releases if the upcoming titles bomb on the platform?

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Bet one of them Japanese titles comes from Platinum Games.

Scalebound Year Zero

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Scalebound Year Zero

Hideki Kamiya Xbox redemption arc starting soon!

 

[adamsapple]

Mayhaps they can have a Japanese studio work on a Mech Assault / Mech Warrior game in the vein of Armored Core's successful revival.

 

[ManaByte]

Bet one of them Japanese titles comes from Platinum Games.

He said "Japanese game creators are part of Xbox Game Studios." So MS bought Platinum?

What are you on about? Stop randomly quoting me.

 

[ManaByte]

20 years ago Steel Battalion was an ultra hardcore marvel for it's INSANE controller.

In 2023 the cost of the controller would be the subject of endless rage bait and cringe YouTube thumbnails.

I believe in Phil Spendaroooo

[DaGwaphics]

Always good to have extra variety. I still have to get to Ghostwire.

 

[Hudo]

Tales of Vesperia 2.

They just release them on PS and Switch as well and it solves their problems.

 

[Fredrik]

The question is will they bring Mistwalker/Sakaguchi to make it, or bring someone else.

I think Sakaguchi is making Fantasian 2 for Apple. First game was brilliant as a traditional turn-based JRPG, Phil should attempt to get a Gamepass release if possible.

 

[Clear]

Why would any Japanese company want to sell to MS now they've seen what's happened with Tango?

 

[Moriarty1889]

scalebound back in the menu lads?

One can hope my friend. I would love to see Scalebound back in development.

 

[BennyBlanco]

Lost Odyssey 2 would be such an easy layup. Medium budget game. Sakaguchi free to do whatever he wants. People loved the first one. An exclusive JRPG would be a nice compliment to all the FPS and WRPGs in their lineup.

That’s exactly why it won’t happen and theyll go buy Crystal Dynamics or Gearbox or something instead. 360 era MS was simply better at operating a traditional videogame business.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

The last major time they did this they almost killed Ace Combat.

I miss OG Xbox and 360. What a glorious time it was to be a gamer.

[Kurimao]

Give us a real AAA Japanese Mech game you pussy!

 

[anothertech]

They can't announce it so no one will know when they cancel it.
