Following the successful and unexpected release of Hi-Fi RUSH last week, players on forums and social media have noted that the game is Bethesda’s first title exclusive to Xbox platforms. Recall that Microsoft announced the purchase of Bethesda in the fall of 2020, and the deal was fully closed in the spring of 2021. Players in social networks recall what the Bethesda team has managed to do in the Xbox camp during this time.
If we take only game releases, from 2020 to 2023, Bethesda, to date, has released 4 new games. Even before the deal between Microsoft and Bethesda (in March 2020), the release took place DOOM Eternal. Since the completion of the purchase from Bethesda, 3 new games have been released:
