00:00For the last few years, Xbox has been releasing formerly exclusive games on rival consoles.
00:05Starfield, Grounded, Sea of Thieves and Forza Horizon, among others, have all been released
00:09on PS5.
00:10However, Xbox fans are using the newly announced community polling tool to tell Microsoft to
00:15knock it off.
00:16This week, Microsoft debuted Xbox Player Voice, an online page that lets players submit feedback
00:21directly and vote on community suggestions.
00:23Almost immediately, thousands of fans voted for more games to become backwards compatible,
00:27for free online play, and for physical compatibility for Project Helix.
00:31However, the most popular suggestion on the page was a call to bring exclusives back.
00:36Xbox was built off of great game exclusives.
00:39You could not sell any console without reason to buy the console compared to your competition,
00:43or even sending your tentpole games over to your competitor the request reads.
00:47Microsoft made clear that Player Voice doesn't mean every piece of feedback will turn into
00:51a feature or result in change, but better visibility helps close the gap between what you tell us
00:56and what you see happen next on Xbox.
00:58Xbox CEO Asha Sharma said the company will re-evaluate our approach to exclusivity just last month,
01:04and also hinted that plans were always subject to change upon taking the job as head of the
01:08gaming division.
01:09Do you want Xbox to return to exclusives?
