Apart from hardware, the company also aims to expand its gaming titles beyond its exclusive Xbox devices.

"We're going to take four games to the other consoles," Spencer said in the podcast. While the official did not name the titles, the two are community-driven, and the other two are smaller games. As per sources cited by The Verge, the titles could be Hi-Fi Rush, Pentiment, Sea of Thieves and Grounded. The company aims to learn from the experience and may plan to introduce more exclusive games to other competent hardware in the future.
