Rumors Suggest Hi-Fi Rush, an Xbox Exclusive, May Come to Nintendo Switch in 2024
2 min read
The rumors surrounding the potential release of Hi-Fi Rush, an Xbox exclusive game developed by Tango Gameworks, on the Nintendo Switch have sparked a heated debate among gamers. Insider “Nate the Hate” and Resetera user lolilolailo have both hinted at the possibility of the game coming to the rival console in 2024. Windows Central also reported that Microsoft is exploring the possibility of bringing some of its back catalog to other platforms. Microsoft has yet to comment on the matter.
The rumors have led to discussions about Microsoft’s exclusives strategy and the potential benefits and drawbacks of bringing Xbox exclusives to other consoles. Some fans are excited about the prospect of more players being able to experience the game, while others are concerned about the potential impact on Xbox’s identity and the exclusivity of its library.
Microsoft’s CFO Tim Stuart previously stated that the company’s mission is to bring its first-party experiences and subscription services to every screen that can play games, including smart TVs, mobile devices, and rival consoles like the PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. However, Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer has denied plans to bring Game Pass to rival consoles.
It’s worth noting that Microsoft already publishes its games on non-Xbox platforms, such as Minecraft and Bethesda games like The Elder Scrolls Online and Fallout 76. The company also has a long list of exclusive games due out this year and beyond, including Obsidian’s Avowed, Ninja Theory’s Hellblade 2, and Playground’s Fable.
The debate continues as fans wait for official confirmation or denial of the rumors.
