Xbox Series X: Is the cross-gen approach a limit? Phil Spencer replies

We told you about the strategic differences undertaken by Sony and Microsoft for the next PS5 and Xbox Series X and how the American giant believes it has the potential to attract a much wider user base than was possible by focusing its energies exclusively on a new hardware.

But since Microsoft is aiming for inclusiveness, or a cross-gen approach, the question arises spontaneously among web users that Xbox Series X, in fact, comes out as a console " limited ". Phil Spencer, the head of the Xbox brand, in an interview for gamesindustry.biz - the same one in which he talks about Microsoft's strategy - intervenes in defense of the latter, totally rejecting the perplexities of the public and setting the example of the environment PC, where things have been working this way for years.

"Frankly, limitation theory is a meme conceived by people too involved in console competition," says Phil Spencer. “Let's think about Windows. It is almost certain that when the developer makes a Windows version of their game, the most powerful and most faithful version will be the PC version. It can be found with some of our first party games also available on PC, a speech that also applies to our competitors, that is, the PC version is always the best. However, the PC ecosystem is the most diversified when it comes to hardware, also thinking about the CPUs and GPUs of several years ago, "he concludes.

“ The titles available for PC are unmatched and feature the highest fidelity, the best performance ever seen in video games. So this idea that developers don't know how to make games, graphics engines, or ecosystems that are working on various types of hardware is wrong and the PC will show us that it is not so,” concludes Phil Spencer. And it is precisely in the light of these words that you can understand the philosophy of Microsoft , which invites us to consider the next Xbox Series X exactly as you can understand the market of games for the PC – durable, inclusive and highly performing.
