Verge and Xbox Era are saying that #Xbox exclusives Indiana Jones and Starfield will be published on #PlayStation next year. Even Halo Infinite is now rumored among "possible upcoming releases".

Some fans are mad, others suggest that the era of exclusives is over. PlayStation previously said that their games are also not about the console itself after criticism of PC ports.
