    Pete Hines Says Sorry About Starfield Xbox Exclusivity

    Contrary to what Todd Howard said about Starfield being an Xbox console exclusive, Bethesda’s Pete Hines shares the opposite idea.

    Hines shared his opinion about the game’s console exclusivity in a recent live-streamed interview with media outlet GameSpot. He actually said sorry to the fans for its Xbox exclusivity and the futility about their decision.

    Here’s what Hines said:

    I don’t know how to allay the concerns of PlayStation 5 fans other than to say, well, I’m a PlayStation 5 player as well, and I’ve played games on that console, and there’s games I’m gonna continue to play on it. All I can really say is, I apologize, because I’m certain that that’s frustrating to folks, but there’s not a whole lot I can do about it.

    Pete Hines, Bethesda

    How the Xbox exclusivity can only be speculated that the final decision came from up above like Microsoft, or Bethesda might actually be making a high-risk bet in order to gain big rewards in the end.

    Starfield launches on November 11, 2022 on Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
