It's a very difficult decision.
On one hand, Xbox needs exclusives to sell hardware. On the other, they need to maximize game sales.
Not making a Playstation version... how much will that cost in sales? A decrease of 10~30%, maybe 40%??
At the same time... another Gears for Xbox Series, how much hardware does that sell?
Imho, Xbox wants to send a message to fans about its exclusives and commitment. Whether this message is legitimate or a hoax, only time will tell.
