Looks like IO Interactive’s fantasy RPG is an Xbox exclusive

[John Elden Ring]

The upcoming original IP from Hitman studio IO Interactive could be an Xbox console exclusive.According to internal Microsoft documents shared as part of the ongoing FTC vs. Microsoft trial over the acquisition of Activision Blizzard.

The documents (spotted by IGN), which assess IO as a potential acquisition target, list it as working on “Project Dragon,” an RPG shooter for PC and Xbox Series X|S. Xbox Game Studios is listed as publisher for the title.

In April 2021, Windows Central first claimed that IO had teamed up with Microsoft to work on a new “dragon-themed IP” which the platform holder was expected to publish as a first-party Xbox exclusive.
