It’s a new year and there are certainly new rumors already popping up about what other games might be available for Nintendo fans in the future.

The latest story circulating suggests that Microsoft’s “highly praised” and well-received game from fans will be released on a “competing system” in 2024. This claim comes from the head of ‘Nate the Hate Podcast‘, which goes on to mention that the same title was in the “game of the year conversation” the year it was released.

“In calendar year 2024, Microsoft will bring one of its most acclaimed first-party releases to the competing system… When the announcement comes, I think it will be met with great excitement, because this is a quality game.”

Nate continues to use Obsidian’s narrative adventure Repentance as an example of how Xbox has done everything it can within its ecosystem and the next step is to bring a title like this to other platforms which can help build an audience for a possible sequel exclusive to Microsoft platforms.

While this rumored game may not necessarily be Pentiment, suggests a conversation elsewhere online it could be Tango Gameworks’ rhythm-based action title Hi-Fi RUSH, which was overshadowed on Xbox early last year and nominated for multiple Game of the Year awards. A user on ResetEra, known for sharing past Xbox-related leaks, also reportedly backed up the idea that it was this game.

Over the past year, Xbox has reiterated its commitment to Nintendo – with an agreement to bring Call of Duty games to Nintendo platforms in the future. Microsoft also worked with Nintendo to bring games like GoldenEye 007 to the Switch.
