It seems like nothing is sacred after all, with arguably the greatest game Xbox Games Studios' ever published, the immaculate Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, seemingly set to charge forth on PS5.

Of course, it seems like most of the Xbox back catalogue will eventually come over as we enter this strange new age, and Tom Warren (who is considered a Tier 2 - Generally Reliable Source) had previously reported that the iconic strategy series (which changed the life of this humble scribe, introduced via cereal promotion) would be coming to PS5.
Warren said around the time of his original reporting, almost six months ago: "As part of Project Latitude, Microsoft has also been considering launching Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition on rival consoles in early 2025, and its upcoming remastered spinoff, Age of Mythology: Retold, could come, too"
