The PS5 is four years into its life cycle, but only accounts for half of PlayStation Network users

      And that’s why the newest console I own is a Switch, and everything else I play is on PC.

      That’s super interesting. Do you have a source you could link for this data?

        I just referenced the data in the wikipedia container article here for some select consoles.

        The source notes that for Mac there have been 2 exclusive games across all versions, and for Windows, there have been about 2560 across all versions. There doesn’t appear to be a listing for Linux unfortunately.

      So the Xbox one series (aka Xbox one 2) has zero dedicated games?

        It depends on how the source categorized the information and how Microsoft classifies the Xbox One versus the Xbox One Series (whether as being two actual different consoles, or two versions of the same console.)

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category%3ASingle-platform_video_games

        There is only one entry for anything related to Xbox One as far as I can see so I expect the 12 it notes are distributed across all versions of the Xbox One, or that there are 0 dedicated games for the Xbox One Series proper.

        I don’t think Xbox Series has exclusives. All of their stuff is on PC afaik.

        There is no listing in the source for Xbox Series, however Gamecube shows 80 exclusive titles.
