<\/figure>\n2021 has been an amazing year for Xbox exclusives, both on console and PC via Xbox Game Pass<\/a>. Titles such as Forza Horizon 5<\/em>, Microsoft Flight Simulator<\/em>, and Age of Empires IV<\/em> have each had huge success on the subscription service. Forza Horizon 5<\/em> alone reached 4.5 million players in a mere 24 hours after release. It\u2019s no wonder that Microsoft would want to keep that rate of success high with a constant flow of new content.<\/p>\n According to Windows Central, a sneak peek into two new Xbox exclusives has been released: Compulsion\u2019s Project \u2018Midnight<\/em>\u2018 and Obsidian\u2019s \u2018Pentiment<\/em>\u2018. While both of these titles are officially unannounced, some details have been released.<\/p>\n Microsoft-owned developer Compulsion, most known for the game We Happy Few<\/em>, is currently working on their game codenamed \u2018Midnight<\/em>\u2018. According to Windows Central, the upcoming title is a \u201cthird-person action game set in a dark and fantastical world.\u201d Continuing their description of the game, \u201cMidnight is described as a \u2018coming of age\u2019 tale drawing upon inspirations from America\u2019s Deep South. The game features magic and large fantastical beasts with a strong \u2018southern gothic\u2019 vibe. The game is a wholly single-player experience, with what has been described to me as a \u2018strong\u2019 story.\u201d There is no release date information as of yet on the intriguing new game.<\/p>\n Obsidian, also a Microsoft-owned developer has created massive games such as the adored Fall Out: New Vegas<\/em> and The Outer Worlds<\/a><\/em>. Their unannounced, but in-development, game is currently titled \u2018Pentiment\u2019. The title\u2019s definition is \u201can underlying image in a painting, especially one that has become visible when the top layer of paint has turned transparent with age.\u201d According to Window\u2019s Central, \u201cThis naming convention hints at the game\u2019s premise, by which you act as an investigator in 16th century Europe uncovering the truth behind a grisly murder.\u201d The game is being led by Josh Sawyer who is best known for leading titles such as Fall Out: New Vegas<\/a><\/em> and Pillars of Eternity<\/em>.<\/p>\n As 2021 comes to a close, it will be interesting to see what Xbox exclusives Microsoft has in store for gamers on Xbox consoles and PC.<\/p>\n <\/ins> <\/p>\n
