Minecraft IP is too big to remain exclusive. 200 million sold and counting. It sucks but I guess it’s MSs Fortnight...it’s job is to print money and pad every fiscal quarter. Guess even spin-offs count. 

What about Hellblade 2? Original game was PS timed exclusive. Now it’s Xbox Ecosystem exclusive.

Instead of listing the exception to the rule, maybe consider that if the game was announced with platforms then MS honours it. Wasteland 3, Psychonauts 2, Outer Worlds. Games that have no platforms announced are fair game. Starfield, Elder Scrolls 6, Fallout 5, Doom 3, etc. 

Then how about Elder Scroll and Fallout that had made a lot money from cross platform and establish franchise on all platform. If the reason Minecraft made a lot money then Elder Scroll and Fallout also money maker if it released on other platform. Especially if the games were build with high end budget and need break even point for the sales. 

Let MS worry about that. Imo Steam and full purchase Xbox sales alone will net a profit. Will it make more on PS5? Sure. But the real goal is to steal users making them join the Xbox ecosystem, and sub to Game Pass.
