Microsoftly passed on the chance to make Genshin Impact an Xbox console exclusive, something the company regretted reported after the game blew up.<\/p>\n
As reported by Reuters, sources familiar with the matter said Microsoft met with Chinese developer miHoYo early in Genshin Impact’s development but failed to reach an exclusivity deal. Sony would later secure the deal for itself, making the game a PlayStation console exclusive.<\/p>\n
“Picking up Genshin Impact made Sony a lot of money,” one source said, adding that missing the opportunity is the driving force behind Microsoft’s current pursuit of independent Chinese developers.<\/p>\n
