If the latest rumors are accurate, Perfect Dark might only be available temporarily on Xbox consoles for now. Historically, Microsoft has aimed to release their major titles across various platforms to boost sales, albeit sacrificing console exclusivity. While this isn’t a fresh piece of information for Xbox Series enthusiasts, it’s still disheartening to see such moves that diminish the exclusivity of games on these consoles.
Discovering a fascinating tidbit as shared by geronimo_73_, a fellow enthusiast: Developer The Initiative has posted a job vacancy for a Principal Graphics Engineer. While it may seem routine at first glance, this position’s description emphasizes multi-platform development repeatedly. Given that this team is working on the upcoming Xbox FPS, it’s tantalizing to speculate that this emphasis on multiple platforms might hint at the potential release of the game not just for PS5, but also for the Switch 2.
It’s logical that Perfect Dark could run on PS5, given its comparable power to Xbox Series X. However, what intrigues fans is whether it will also work on Nintendo Switch 2. Given Nintendo’s history of lagging behind Sony and Microsoft in terms of graphics, if a modern FPS like Perfect Dark were to be ported to their hybrid console, it would send a strong message.
Information about this upcoming sci-fi shooter is sparse, aside from the impressive gameplay trailer unveiled during last year’s Xbox Games Showcase. With no updates on this series in years, fans were astounded by how gameplay-centric the presentation video was. If it does release for other platforms, it will initially be exclusive to Xbox for a couple of months first.
Despite the ongoing challenges with Xbox’s identity, having more people play Perfect Dark would definitely be beneficial. Given its past popularity on Nintendo 64, releasing it on additional platforms could reignite interest in this intellectual property. On the other hand, if the game turns out to be exceptionally good, it might persuade some fans to purchase an Xbox.
