’s cross-platform release strategy puts the company in a unique position this year–as it currently stands, there are more Xbox first-party games than Sony titles confirmed for a PlayStation release in 2025.

The February 2025 State of Play livestream on Wednesday contained announcements for several games, but the presentation showcased very few first-party PlayStation games, instead highlighting many third-party titles like Monster Hunter Wilds and Borderlands 4.

It’s a bizarre future for console owners dedicated to one brand over the other, but a future we’ll all have to get used to as more Xbox properties potentially migrate to PlayStation.

Of course, the balance between the two competitors in this year’s release schedule could shift as Sony announces more dates for its titles. Ultimately, this ironic twist may not matter to Sony, which touted successful hardware sales numbers from its most recent quarter, with 9.5 million PS5 consoles shipped and 75 million sold in the platform’s lifetime.
