Ah, so Konami clearly hasn't paid attention to Square's experience with exclusives on PS5. So I guess this game isn't going to meet sales expectations either.

"Console exclusive" apparently means its only exclusive to one console, but PC is still a thing.

There's an asterisk with a fine print "also available on PC".

They wanna sell those playstations so bad.

That makes it much more cruel. They are going to single out those two dozens of Xbox users.

There are more than two dozen Xbox players, come on now.

3 dozen?...

There is a lot more than that.

Lemmy is almost as anti-Xbox as gaming journalists, sheesh.

So... Wait. Is it on PC right now? I mean, I thought it was... Until I saw this announcement.

I like the phrase "PS5 players beta testing for the PC release".

It's coming to PC on day one, check the details.

Theyre calling it "exclusive" because it's only on one "console" but it's still releasing simultaneously on PC.

Don't forget about Xbox players, there's dozens of us!

YES! Thanks Sony. I hate it when other gamers get the game at the same time as me. I hope you didn't pay too much for the exclusivity. /s

Amazing how I played this on my PC last night, guess I wasn't aware of this new definition for "exclusive". Happy about it tho!
