Ian Maclure, visual effects designer gave information to gaming journalist Jeff Gerstmann. claim multiple game studios Microsoft was asked to stop making the game compatible with the Xbox Series S console, arguing that the “Series S is the next generation of games” makes sense.
“It might sound a bit overbearing. But the cause is like this Because “many” game developers will have to sit in meetings for many rounds. The game had to be made with a lot of hard work over the past year. To make the game playable on Xbox Series S
In addition, game studios faced a lot of trouble creating games for Series S, so when creating new games exclusively for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, they didn’t want to go back to making a series of games. S once more.” – Ian Maclure said on Twitter.
The whole “Series S is holding back next-gen games” argument seems really broken to me. Most of these games also come to PC and already have to cover a wide variety of configs. Like go look at the Steam Hardware Survey sometime. Lots of older stuff with significant percentages.

Xbox Series S is the ninth generation game console that was released alongside Xbox Series X. The Series S is the model even though it has significantly lower specs than Series X. But with a game machine that is small, cheap, and has good performance, it’s perfect. This makes this game console a good response. Especially in Japan, the Model S sold better than the X.
