Rumor: Microsoft's Xbox Handheld Could Run PlayStation 5 Games

Asked by terryaster at 12:24pm on Nov 28 2024

Industry insider Tom Warren has stirred up speculation regarding Microsoft's rumored handheld Xbox console, claiming that it will be able to run PlayStation 5 games. While rumors about a handheld Xbox have been circulating for years, recent comments from Phil Spencer, who revealed that handheld prototypes are in development at Microsoft, have fueled further interest in the device. Although the console may still be a long way from release, players are already debating whether it will function as a remote streaming device like the PlayStation Portal or as a full-fledged handheld gaming console.

Warren, a Senior Editor at The Verge, shared his thoughts on the matter in response to player concerns on X (formerly Twitter). He suggested that Microsoft's handheld might not be a traditional Xbox but instead a handheld gaming PC similar to the Steam Deck or Lenovo Legion Go, capable of running PlayStation games because "Sony puts their games on PC."

While it remains unclear whether Warren's statement is based on insider knowledge or pure speculation, his reasoning makes sense. Microsoft has increasingly leaned toward PC-style hardware in its recent developments, and it seems likely that this trend will continue with future products. The high-end hardware focus of the Xbox Series X/S, including its detailed graphical modes, reflects Microsoft's shift toward mini-PC development rather than conventional consoles.

Additionally, Warren points to Phil Spencer's efforts to bring third-party PC game stores, such as Epic Games and Itch.io, to Xbox consoles. This push implies that Xbox consoles will need to run PC games, making it plausible that a future handheld could support a wide variety of PC titles, including those from PlayStation. Furthermore, as PlayStation increasingly releases its games on PC stores, it seems natural for Xbox’s handheld device to follow suit, potentially allowing access to PlayStation games long after their initial exclusivity on Sony’s platform.

While this concept is still speculative, it highlights the growing trend of cross-platform gaming and the blurring of lines between traditional consoles and PC gaming.
