They're already mad
They didn’t even put the video on their YouTube channel.
Either the game is not exclusive, or MS is trying to make it exclusive.
Marvel and Bethesda contract was before MS bought them so MS has nothing to do with the game.

Blade is a underrated character in the marvel universe. Hopefully the game is great. Same with the movie coming.
since its early dev, 2026 will probably be the release year. Maybe 2027.
Contracts are a thing.
MS would have to try and do what they did with Indiana Jones. Which they probably will.
Bethesda posted that the game just entered development, so it won't be out for a while. Should Sony take the same approach and announce things that are a ways away if it means bolstering their announced lineup?
That’s what they’ve always done. They did that last generation with PS4 games. People didn’t like it and complained. Now Sony announces games closer to release and there’s complaints about that now.
Wolverine is the only game this generation Sony announced early.
I don’t care if a game is announced and it’s years away. That’s something to look forward to. Why wouldn’t you like knowing about upcoming games? So called gamers are weird.
I see playstation hasn't reposted
Phil Spencer and Xbox twitter handle did
this game probably will come on next gen hardware by looking at the timeline

I wouldn’t write it off to fast.
Fun fact it’s only game with no platform named. All games which Microsoft had either marketing rights (Persona & Project Re Fantazio) or exclusive games (Senua’s Saga Hellblade II) showed during the tga had Xbox branding. Blade had it not thou…
It will hit probably PS6 and when it releases I wouldn’t be confident to say if there will be existing a next generation Xbox.

It probably will end up being exclusive, but I guess it's possible Disney saw the success of Spider-Man on Playstation and are wondering if they want to miss out on that install base for Blade.

We know through the court hearing that Indiana Jones is an Xbox exclusive the announcement is similar to that of Indiana Jones it will be an exclusive
I want a new Blade game and in theory Arkane would be a great candidate. But they are owned by MS now and they made Redfall, so could be a turd and be relesed in 6 or 7 years. Not sure what to think about this game. The CG teaser at least was interesting.
Both MS and Disney/Marvel know that future MCU movies will need as big a push as possible in transmedia spaces. Gaming-wise Xbox can't provide that push on its own, not the way PlayStation can with IP like Spiderman (and the upcoming Wolverine).
So I think this is a case where regardless what Phil Spencer wants, Disney/Marvel are going to require it be multi-console to help therein give the film (which has a very troubled production history as-is) as much visibility as it can get.
Indiana Jones is effectively a dormant/dead IP film-wise so I don't think Lucasfilm care if a game timed somewhat close to the recent flop is exclusive console-wise to a languishing console platform.
Blade is part of the MCU which is something Disney/Marvel can't afford to have wither away like Star Wars has; they will want any game tied to it to have as much visibility as possible. Xbox can't provide that for them on its own; they need PlayStation to afford that visibility (and preferably, association/crossover with the Spiderman fanbase) to give the film a strong chance at a big box office.
Business 101 suggests it'll be a multi-console game.
