, and he shared his belief that the the current console generation is too similar. That’s why he wants to see the next iteration of Xbox offer innovations that will make it an easier choice for players.

“I want us to innovate and make the hardware the differentiator,” explained Spencer. “We’ve got into this space where the differentiation on the hardware has gone down and it’s really been locked games that you’ve tried to make the identity of the hardware. I love when I see handhelds, when I see kind of unique things that hardware manufacturers do. And I want our hardware to compete… so let’s have our platform continue to innovate with services and the hardware work that we’re doing… I think that’s our identity going forward and it’s working for us now.”

is developing a handheld console of its own.

In the short term, Spencer hasn’t ruled out games like Starfield crossing over to PS5, while Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and Doom: The Dark Ages are both making the leap to Sony’s platform in the first half of this year. There are even reports that Xbox franchises like Halo and Gears of War may make the leap to PlayStation 5.
