"The Xbox Partner Preview showed off a bunch of cool and interesting projects coming to Xbox consoles and PC in the future, including Armatus, The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu, and Raji: Kaliyuga. However, the event itself bucked an annoying trend that other trailer showcases continue to follow, as each trailer that aired during the event showed the logos for every console the game will launch on, not just Xbox."
"Traditionally, when a game makes an appearance during one of these events, the final shot confirms the game for the host company's consoles--PlayStation consoles for Sony, the Switch or Switch 2 for Nintendo, and so on. However, in yesterday's event the PS5 and Nintendo Switch 2 logos appeared multiple times throughout the showcase. The final shot from the Armatus trailer that aired during the Xbox Partner Preview."
"This small detail seems to be another nod toward Xbox's strategy of catering to as many platforms as possible through its "This is an Xbox" campaign and Xbox Play Anywhere, where players purchase a game on one platform and have access to it on Xbox, PC, and mobile devices. The Partner Preview yesterday, in fact, began with the confirmation that every game shown during the event would have Xbox Play Anywhere capabilities."
The Xbox Partner Preview showcased 16 upcoming games for Xbox consoles and PC, including Armatus, The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu, and Raji: Kaliyuga. Each trailer displayed logos for every console the game will launch on, not only Xbox, with PS5 and Nintendo Switch 2 logos appearing multiple times. Thirteen of the 16 titles included PlayStation or Nintendo Switch logos in their ending graphics; Echo Generation 2, Roadside Research, and Cloverpit were the only games shown as Xbox-exclusive at that time. The event began with confirmation that every game would support Xbox Play Anywhere, enabling cross-platform purchases. New reveals included Vampire Crawlers and Tides of Annihilation.
