The battle between Xbox One and PS4 is a big one, but that doesn’t mean the line can’t be crossed every now and then. With that in mind, what Playstation exclusives would we love to see readily available on Xbox One? Well, these 5 would be great for starters…
5. Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch
Not one game in the past five years (save Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons) has managed to feel so heartfelt and lovingly crafted. You can bemoan the typical JRPG tropes like the obsession with finding the light and positivity through darkness and despair, or the Pokemon influences stemming from those pesky Familiars. But the Ghibli sheen is unmistakably and majestically realised in this ground-swelling achievement in RPG design and storytelling.
Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch not only needs a contemporary remaster, (which is a rare exception for this writer because the whole fascination has been a hodgepodge of gratifyingly great and distressingly dismal) but should find a home on Xbox because there would be nothing else like it on the system. Xbox does not need to be a console overrun with characters who wear metallic suits and shoot aliens, it’s time for Xbox to pare back its idiosyncrasies and let the modest adventures take hold. Xbox’s propensity for system sellers is reasonable enough, but now is the best time to let experimental adventures in to flood Microsoft’s behemoth console.
