Outraged Xbox gamers are selling their Xbox consoles after the cross-platform announcement
First reported by Dextero, many are outraged on Twitter by Microsoft’s decision to bring some of its exclusives to PS5.
For many, the main reason for choosing Xbox is its exclusives, so many gamers are feeling abandoned after this unexpected decision by Microsoft.
Some even decided to sell their consoles and cancel their Xbox Game Pass subscriptions in protest and they are posting evidence on Twitter.
We still don’t know how will this decision affect the future of Xbox and Microsoft, but Microsoft’s Phil Spencer is aware of the outrage and he’s scheduled a business event for next week that should address some of these concerns.
If you’re one of the gamers who plans to move away from Xbox after this decision, we have a great article that compares PS5 and Xbox, so be sure to visit it for more information.
