Both the PS 5 and Xbox Series X have come within seven years of the last generation of console hardware. And while it’s likely within the first year of both the console that many of the hottest titles may launch on last- and current-gen simultaneously, there’s still a good number of games that will be exclusively playable only on a PS5 or Xbox Series X / S.

Besides 4K, the solid-state drives, and other spec changes, Microsoft and Sony have collaborated closely to support every title in the existing console platforms’ libraries. Every Xbox, Xbox 360, and Xbox One game is currently playable on the available Xbox One hardware (minus Kinect games) and will be available on the Series X / S, hence Sony is supporting a “large majority” of PS4 games, of more than 4,000 titles.
