More Xbox Games Coming to PS5

Microsoft is also bringing more of its first-party games to PlayStation 5. After confirming Forza Horizon 5 for PS5, the company announced that two classic strategy games will also be available soon:

Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition – Coming to PS5 in Spring 2025
Age of Mythology: Retold – Coming to PS5 on March 5, 2025
Both games will feature cross-play, so players from Xbox and PlayStation can play with each other. Age of Mythology: Retold will also get further updates simultaneously on both consoles.

This is another big step for Microsoft to continue sharing its games with the PlayStation players.
