Larian is having trouble fitting Baldur’s Gate III on the Xbox Series S, the lower-priced and lower-powered console in Microsoft’s ninth-generation lineup.

I was looking up more information on why there’s such an issue getting BG3 on Xbox, and found this article with a lot more detail on the topic.

EDIT: The issue isn’t graphics or frame rate; it’s memory. The article goes into detail.

But there are certain titles that are only on PS5 and not PC?

Of course yeah. But more often than not PC isn't factored in when something is called exclusive or not because honestly PC and Consoles aren't in competition in the same way consoles are with each other.

That's a matter of perspective I guess..

Someone should tell Sony since they only release their games on PC after like 2-3 years have passed :(

Ghost of Tsushima is a PlayStation exclusive game (so far at least, fingers crossed it'll come to PC soon), but God of War 2018 is a PlayStation console exclusive, small but important distinction
