Gamers everywhere, it’s time to start dreaming. A landmark moment in gaming is upon us withMicrosoftconfirming that it will start bringing exclusives to other platforms.
With the announcement that Xbox will take four of its exclusives to other consoles soon, as well as promisingnew hardware, the floodgates have opened for silly season. Could we soon see some of Xbox’s biggest titles onPlayStation 5? Whether as part of the initial four games or beyond, here are 5 titles I’d love to play on my PS5.
1. Halo

This seems like the longest shot of all. For so long theHaloseries has been among the most iconic titles on Xbox. Master Chief is basically Microsoft’s Mario, and their most recognisable character since Clippy (the Windows paper clip).
FPS games on the PS5 benefit greatly from using the DualSense controller’s adaptive triggers and I’d love to seeHalo’sunique roster of weapons make the most of them. Imagine a Spartan Laser or Gravity Hammer with the haptic feedback too, it would give the weapons the gravitas they have always deserved. Plus, it could always be crossplay with Xbox and PC like many shooters are now anyway.
2. Forza

Probably the second most obvious name PS5 fans would want. YesGran Turismo 7is an exceptional racing game, but it’s pretty much a straight sim, it doesn’t have quite the sense of fun, nor the expansive open world of theForza Horizonseries.
3. Hi-Fi Rush
From two of the biggest franchises in gaming to one that’s just establishing itself.Hi-Fi Rushwas one of the most unexpected (and best) releases of 2023. It’s probably one of the 4 initial games hitting other platforms too.

This is a rhtyhm action platformer/arena fighter that’s a treat for both the ears and eyes. All of protaganist Chai’s actions are done to the beat of the music, the best way to describe it would beGuitar HeromeetsDevil May Cryand if that hasn’t sold you I don’t know what will.
4. Left 4 Dead
Ok hear me out, I know there’s no word on aLeft 4 Dead 3yet, but should there come a time when the co-op zombie shooter series gets a revival, I need to be able to play it onPlayStation.
Growing up,Left 4 Dead 2was the talk of the town and as someone who didn’t own an Xbox, I could only enjoy it when visiting friends. Yes you can play its spiritual successor,Back 4 Blood,on PS5 but that game just doesn’t scratch the same itch. Heck even if Valve continues to refuse to hate the number 3, I’d love a remake ofLeft 4 Dead 2please and thank you.
5. Sea of Thieves

This is another title that I think could feasibly be in the four game first wave of former Xbox exclusives.
A multiplayer focused Pirate ‘em up,Sea of Thievescould be given new life with a swathe of new players from another platform. Run a tight ship of your friends/skivvies and enjoy some swashbuckling adventures on the seven seas together. Ubisoft has just released something similar withSkull & BonesbutSea of Thieveshas a massive pre-existing community and focus on fun.
