The case of Black Fable: Wukong’s alleged Sony exclusivity is turning into curiouser and curiouser, with a spokesperson for Microsoft confirming that its indefinite delay has nothing to do with the assumed technical limitations of the Xbox Collection S. Instantly, these shadowy money-hat conspiracy theories aren’t trying fairly so far-fetched.
Forbes contributor Paul Tassi stays on the centre of this story, and he obtained an announcement from Microsoft that leaves us with extra questions than solutions: “As now we have mentioned earlier than, we’re excited for the launch of Black Fable Wukong on Xbox Collection X|S and are working with Sport Science to convey the sport to our platforms. We might favor to not touch upon the offers made by our companions with different platform holders however we will verify that the delay is just not on account of Xbox platform limitations which have been raised to us.”
Tassi says this assertion reinforces his unique reporting, which was corroborated by IGN, however poo-pooed by trade insiders and gadflies. The journalist factors to the half about not commenting on different platform holders offers as proof:
“Black Fable: Wukong’s delayed launch on Xbox is just not technical in nature, and never due to some concern with the Collection S as many have speculated, as Microsoft is now saying outright. Microsoft didn’t touch upon any specifics of a deal between Sport Science and Sony, however once more, like their unique statements, have pointed on to that risk when making an announcement a couple of delay.”
