Rumor: Halo: Master Chief Collection and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Headed to PS5 and Switch 2 in 2025
A recent report from industry insider NateTheHate suggests that Halo: The Master Chief Collection is slated for release on PlayStation 5 and the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. The same source indicates a 2025 launch window for this six-game compilation. This follows Microsoft's February 2024 initiative to bring more first-party titles to non-Xbox platforms, a list already including Pentiment, Hi-Fi Rush, Grounded, Sea of Thieves, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. As Dusk Falls and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny are also considered part of this multi-platform expansion.
NateTheHate further predicts that Microsoft Flight Simulator, potentially the recently released MFS 2024, will also see releases on PS5 and Switch 2 sometime in 2025.
More Xbox Games to Go Multi-Platform in 2025
This news is supported by another prominent leaker, Jez Corden, who tweeted that significantly more Xbox games are destined for PS5 and Switch 2. Corden has consistently voiced his belief that the era of exclusive Xbox titles is concluding.
The future multi-platform expansion is almost guaranteed for the Call of Duty franchise, following Microsoft's ten-year agreement with Nintendo to bring Call of Duty games to Nintendo consoles. The absence of Switch titles to date may be attributed to Microsoft awaiting the release of the more powerful Switch 2, better equipped to handle the graphical demands of modern Call of Duty games.
