Xbox Series X/S 2021 Exclusives List Hints at Hellblade 2 Delay

The constant battle of releasing a better range of exclusive titles led Xbox to buy out Bethesda Studios last year. Although the deal has not been inked just yet, it could turn future titles into Xbox exclusives. The studio, however, has released a promising list of exclusives for 2021 that are coming to its consoles and PC. It includes some of the biggest names that could turn the tide of console war in its favor.
