The gaming community is not a fan of being lied to, and what transpired during Gamescom 2024 was a total breach of trust. Fans are ready to add another broken promise to Phil Spencer’s massive pile, and it is not funny anymore.

Fans Felt Betrayed After the Recent Indiana Jones and the Great Circle PlayStation 5 Port

TheXboxplatform is not doing too well in the first-party exclusives department, and the gaming community assumed this would be addressed after Phil Spencer’s aggressive acquisition spree to bolster the library of first-party content. It is understandable if most loyal Microsoft advocates are upset aboutthe PlayStation 5 port ofIndiana Jones and the Great Circle.

The issue was never about sharing the game with rival platforms; the fans are upset because theyfelt let down by Phil Spencer. Spencer held an emergency podcast to clarify that there will be no PlayStation 5 ports for upcoming major projects from Bethesda Game Studios, including theIndiana Jonesgame andStarfield, only to see it announced on this year’s Gamescom.

Spencer would have been aware of a PlayStation 5 port in development alongside the native Xbox and PC versions. Perhaps Spencer is out of options, and instead of spoiling the surprise or nightmare for the Microsoft player base, he kept quiet and waited for the backlash at Gamescom 2024.
