Following a rumor that Starfield and other titles might be coming to PS5 last week, the internet was in a storm. At the time, Phil Spencer promised a business update event in the near future to talk more about everything being discussed online. Today, we got confirmation of an Official Xbox Podcast special episode starring Phil Spencer, Sarah Bond, and Matt Booty that’ll focus on where the video game company is headed.
The podcast episode was announced in a tweet on the official Xbox account, which you can view below:

“Please join us for a special edition of the Official Xbox Podcast,” the tweet reads. “Hear from Phil Spencer, Sarah Bond, and Matt Booty as they share updates on the Xbox business.”
Long-time Xbox fans were up in arms last week following the rumors of Xbox exclusives finding their way to other platforms. It makes sense: if you bought an Xbox just to have access to specific titles, only to find later that those titles might come to PlayStation anyway, it might make that purchase feel pointless. You could’ve just bought a PS5 and waited a few years.
None of the higher-ups at Xbox have confirmed or denied any of the rumors, which makes matters worse. The anticipation of what might come next is killing most of the Xbox community at the moment. Hopefully, Phil and the gang have news to share that will put their many loyal fans’ minds at ease.
The Official Xbox Podcast special episode will stream on all podcast platforms and Youtube.com/Xbox on February 15 at 12pm PST/3pm EST/4am HKT.
