Is Forspoken Coming to Xbox Series X and S?

"Forspoken" fans got terrible news when publisher Square Enix announced that the game would miss its May 25, 2022 release date. The situation grew even worse when "Forspoken" got hit by another big delay, pushing the launch all the way into January 2023 — a full eight months later than originally planned.
In a brief sizzle reel for the PS5 console looking at new and upcoming games, the Square Enix and developer Luminous Productions revealed that “Forspoken” won't come to other consoles for a minimum of 24 months after launch. Given this, Xbox Series X and S players won't be able to get their hands on the game until at least January 24, 2025 or later.
2025 is far away for a game first shown off in 2020 — it's also unlikely that an Xbox version of "Forspoken" will release at the exact moment the timed PlayStation exclusivity deal ends. It's not all bad news, though, as the game will release on PC at the same time as the PS5, showing Sony’s continued commitment to releasing its console exclusives on that platform as well.
