Sony was negotiating timed exclusivity for Starfield a couple months back
- Thread starter jbug617

Is it normal to negotiate timed exclusivity for a game two years out? Not really familiar with how these things work.
Also yeah, no chance it isn't a timed exclusive at the minimum to Xbox Series S/X if MS really wanna keep it multiplat. I'm personally expecting it to be a full-blown exclusive to move consoles.
EDIT: Forgot about FFVIIR, LMAO! Ignore me.

Final Fantasy VII remake was announced as a timed exclusive 5 years before it was out.
This next gen battlefield is absurd, really. Sony trying to negotiate exclusive deal after exclusive deal and MS buying up half the industry. Gen 9 will definitely change the gaming landscape a good deal.
Damn yeah, forgot about that LMAO. Starfield will probs be showed off more in June next year so it makes sense. We'll get news on platforms then I'm guessing.
Yeah no shit, people were still pushing the idea that it might be a timed exclusive because MS don't want to miss out on profits but it'll be a full exclusive.
Probably did not push through based on the release. Xbox mentioned Starfield. Would be embarrassing if it had an exclusivity of some sort with Sony.
They bought the the company its a full exclusive
What is happening around here
They wording was really odd actually that it would be day 1 of the xbox/ pc launch, the whole thing is crazy...
That would have been a huge get as well.
I wonder how Sony got a hold of the news, like Bethesda going like "mmmm well, let us ask around, we'll get to you in two weeks ;)"

Sony wanted a piece of the pie while Microsoft decided to have the whole thing lol.
I wonder where Sony is going to look up and open their warchest.
If they try moneyhatting a big ass western game, you can bet the likes of EA, Warner Bros or Ubisoft to ask a tremendous amount of money, like a lot.
Aye, at least we can rule out Bethesda from the timed exclusivity shit now.

Imran Khan: "Sony has locked timed exclusivity for some huge and widely known multiplatform games" News

edit: to be clear, this was referring to starfield at the time
If true, Sony got their fingers badly burnt. What was supposed to be a mid-gen feather in their cap has turned into an almost-certain perma-exclusive for their biggest rivals.
And this site is full of people trumpeting these deals as a good thing for reasons unknown
Yes because at least now with MS I'll likely be able to get it on gamepass PC day 1.
