Did Sony strike a Black Fantasy: Wukong PS5 exclusivity take care of Recreation Science? That’s the query — one with conflicting solutions that has a bunch of identified insiders and journalists disputing one another’s claims. Some time again, a imprecise Microsoft assertion led individuals to imagine that Sony moneyhatted Black Fantasy: Wukong, however these strategies have been dismissed. Now, some journalists are saying that these rumors have been true.
How doubtless is it for Sony to have a secret Black Fantasy: Wukong PS5 exclusivity deal?
The unique report about potential moneyhatting got here previous to Black Fantasy: Wukong’s launch, and was primarily based on an announcement by Microsoft that apparently alluded to it. Nevertheless, that suggestion was broadly dismissed as a result of: a. Sony can be shouting off the rooftops if it had an exclusivity deal, and b. Recreation Science stated it was optimizing the sport for Xbox Sequence X|S.
Final night time, Forbes’ contributor Paul Tassi claimed to have heard from a supply that Sony does in reality have a deal in place to maintain Black Fantasy: Wukong off of Xbox consoles. IGN then claimed that it, too, has heard the identical from its personal supply. Shortly afterwards, journalist and insider Jeff Grubb, identified insider eXtas1s, and XboxEra’s Nick “Shpeshal Nick” Baker disputed these claims.
It’s believed that Sony helped with the sport’s PS5 port, which was one way or the other misinterpreted as an exclusivity deal. We’re leaning in the direction of this clarification as a result of Sony hasn’t actually marketed Black Fantasy: Wukong prefer it tends to advertise console exclusives, and given the sport’s recognition, a “secret” deal sounds a bit garbage.
