Quite a setback for PlayStation 5 users.
Redfall is one of the star Xbox games for the coming months, and it’s coming at the beginning of May, so we won’t have to wait long to enjoy it. We have already tested it, which is why we have brought you our first impressions of Redfall, but to tell the truth, we are talking about a game that arouses a bit of controversy, especially by PlayStation userswhich will not receive this video game for their console.
It seemed that this “controversy” had already passed, because everyone had already assumed that the most important titles of Bethesda Coming exclusively to Xbox and PC, in addition to being included from day 1 in Xbox Game Pass, the Microsoft service. Even so, recent statements by Harvey Smith (game director) to IGN France, have raised this controversy again.
Redfall was in development for PS5
As confirmed by Harvey Smith, Redfall was in development, like the previous titles of this study, for all possible platforms, including PlayStation 5. Specifically, according to what they say, it was when the purchase of ZeniMax by Microsoft was completed, when they were ordered to stop developing the version for the next generation PlayStation console.
Still, Smith has also commented that this wasn’t a bad thing, rather the opposite, since it allowed them to focus on fewer versions, so development has been smoother, if you will. Likewise, they also talk about how its inclusion in Xbox Game Pass it can be very beneficial for the gamesomething that we could already guess, especially taking into account that we are talking about a game that focuses on online.
Even so, this has once again raised controversy among PlayStation users, and it is that we are involved in the process of buying Activision Blizzard, and probably these statements are not particularly helpful. Even so, according to Mr. Smith, this has been a change for the better, allowing them to focus on other parts of the development, so we hope that this will help us to say that Redfall is one of the best Xbox games in a while.
