Can You Play Forspoken on Xbox?
Forspoken is an exciting new-generation game that has you casting spells and flying through the air with Faye's parkour skills. Unfortunately, Xbox gamers will be left out of the experience as Forspoken is a PlayStation-exclusive title like God of War Ragnarok and The Last of Us Part 1. We do know, however, that the console exclusivity window lasts until January 23, 2025. Forspoken will be available to play on PC, however.
Nier Automata, previously a PlayStation exclusive, received a port more than a year after its launch on Xbox with all of the post-release DLC included. It's also now on the Nintendo Switch. Perhaps there could be an edition with all of the DLC or upgraded features on Xbox with Forspoken, but that has not been confirmed in the slightest. Final Fantasy 16 is also not coming to Xbox.
