Comparing PS4 and Xbox One Exclusives Releasing in March

It's common knowledge that 2015 will be a big year for the console market, with games such as Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and Halo 5: Guardians looming on the horizon. When looking a little closer to the present, however, it's clear that March will be a massive month for Microsoft and Sony, with both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 playing host to a variety of exclusives. For what it's worth, here is a comparison of just which games will suck your wallet dry over the next 31 days.

[Foehammer]

Excellent

March is looking good

EDIT
What's the problem pedro? Does my enjoyment of March cause you to feel insecure?

EDIT 2 @ Magicite, Not sure what you consider "notable"? Is a metacritic score of 65 notable?

[pedrof93]

For Ps4 at least :D

[IGiveHugs2NakedWomen]

The article is not accurate. There are several games on the list that are not being released for the PS4 and one will also be released for the WiiU. Here is the corrected list of exclusive content for the Playstation 4.

Helldivers
Hotline Miami 2
Jamestown+
Axiom Verge
Bloodborne
Toukiden Kiwami
MLB The Show 2015
OlliOlli 2: Welcome to OlliWood
Wander

These games mentioned in the article are not coming to the Playstation 4

The Awakened Fate Ultimatum, Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters, Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea, The Arland Atelier Trilogy, and Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines

Starwhal is coming out on Wii U.

Xbox One exclusive content

Screamride
Ori The Blind Forest
Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious (Stand alone DLC)
Neverwinter
Kinect Fruit Ninja 2

No one bothered to check the accuracy of the article before you clicked the approval button?

I'm sure the people who disagreed are the people who didn't bother to check and notice the difference between PS3, PS4, and PS Vita.

[IGiveHugs2NakedWomen]

Edit: Add LA Cops to the list for Xbox One

@Yaay4me

Pay attention...

These games are not being released on the PS4

The Awakened Fate Ultimatum, Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters, Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea, The Arland Atelier Trilogy, and Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines

[Yaay4me]

@i givehugs
Wait are you being sarcastic? Those titles ARE coming to PS4. Heck, Helldivers is my most anticipated game since last year, its coming March 3, why are you saying its not coming to PS4?

[sonarus]

The only major game i see missing for playstation anyway is the show. Pretty sure it comes out on PS3 as well but not sure.

[BallsEye]

@IGiveHugs2NakedWomen

And funny thing is, it's the first month in a while where PS4 actually has quite a few titles (indies but still) releasing, rarely more than XO and BAM, we have a special article dedicated just for March releases + comparison. Ahhh...

[bouzebbal]

b.....but... PS4 has no games.

[aconnellan]

@I give hugs

If you read this note in the article, I state that games listed under "PlayStation 4" are true PS4 exclusives; the rest are listed under "Sony" because they'll be available on other Sony platforms (PS3, PS Vita, etc). Same goes for the Xbox One and Microsoft lists.

You're correct, those games are coming to the PS4, but they're also coming to some other platform, so they're not listed as true exclusives. Same for ScreamRide and Ori on the Xbox One - they're coming to the 360.

"Note: For the purpose of this article, I will list PlayStation 4 exclusives, Sony exclusives, Xbox One exclusives, and Microsoft exclusives as four separate categories"

I do thank you for your contribution, however, there were a couple of titles that I had missed, and for that I apologise.

[jebabcock]

Just goto listwar.com

They have done a good job of keeping things up to date so far.

[Magicite]

Basically only noteable MS exclusive in 2015Q1 is Ori.

[Benjammin25]

And I'll be playing that on PC since I'm sure any old PC could run the game just fine.

[NeoGamer232]

You obviously don't own an X1...

#IDARB, Roundabout, Riptide 2, and The Escapists have been a success.

Also, they continue releasing new characters for Killer Instinct, and there will be the standalone Forza Horizon Fast and Furious Expansion.

Add to that Screamride which is receiving very positive previews, Ori and the Blind Forest, and Neverwinter which has already shipped on PC and there is plenty of content in March not on the other consoles.

Then, add to that BF Hardline, DMC Definitive, and Borderlands Handsome Jack multi-platform games.

If you actually owned an X1 you wouldn't be saying that only Ori is notable in 2015Q1.

I know PS4 has a lot coming as well. But, your comment is blatant BS spouting out your fanboy ass.

[kickerz]

Mate Xbox owners have had a steady flow of great games since launch. I think we will be right with a few slower months.

[rainslacker]

Screamride looks like something I'd be in to. Not worth buying the system for yet for me...still waiting on Quantum Break if I see better game play footage, which was a bit disappointing for me when they unveiled it.

[andresegr]

I find these list hilarious, its obvious they are made for trolling reasons because there is absolutely no comparation between the two months for each console. Ps4 lineup DESTROYS X1 lineup, just like Ps Plus destroys Xbox Live when it comes to the monthly free games.

[ghostface9]

xbox is getting tomb raider bioshock infinite and raymand legends I dont even have to see the list to know there destroying ps plus this month

[22CobraKing]

@ghostface9
We got some of those games you mentioned last gen already so PS+ wins

[DigitalRaptor]

@ ghostface9

You can take those games back to the dust closet.

BioShock Infinite and Tomb Raider have already been on PS+. It should be named Games: They're Old. Nah, just playing... but PS+ offers brand new games a lot of the time, quality ones too.

[Lore]

I'm pretty sure anyone with half a brain has already realized that metacritic (among many other critics) and their scores are irrelevant

[BattleAxe]

I don't suppose you own a PS4 and bought The Order 1886 did you?.....just curious

[ZombieKiller]

Lol PS 14 games, xbox 5. Whoever said Xbox has more exclusives needs to learn to count. I'll waist deep in some GAMES!

Awesome list! Can't wait for Bloodbourne!

[Zeref]

Nobody said Xbox has more exclusives. Its just that PS4 is 90% indie wannabe mario games. And Xbox One offers More AAA exclusives that have quality.

[poor_cus_of_games]

@zeref That's a flat out lie and you know it. Here's a link to prove you wrong. It took me all of one minute to find. Stop spreading misinformation.

http://www.listwar.com/rele...

[ZombieKiller]

Zeref, people say that all the time. It baffles me how blind and stupid people can be sometimes. Saying the 360 is better because it sold better like it was fact. Yet the PS3 sold more than the 360 AFTER the year head start the 360 had. Now it's, PS4 has no games....Dude, I've got so many games I can't play them all. I barely sign into n4g like I used to because I have so many games I still need to complete.

90% indie mario wannabe games?! Get the hell off this gaming site you wannabe troll. I'm surprised you have 4 bubbles.

1) All my games I am talking about...not a single one is an indie game.
2) Even the multiplats are now better on PS4 (before you even start)
3) If you can't tell the difference between Bloodbourne and Mario, that is your issue. Why are you here?

Soooo.....sunset overdrive, Dead Rising 3 and what....Halo? scream quality.....AAA material....as If the other guys don't? Have you seen a PS4 exclusive? Does your fanboy goggles even allow that? Let's talk about Uncharted. God of War. Bloodbourne. F'ing STREET FIGHTER V (..and I'm a MK fan by the way) ...total indie games right? /s

Keep rooting for yourself though, Scalebound does look really good. poor_cus_of_games said it miles better than you did and he has 1 bubble.

[Chris092]

Isn't MLB 15: The Show coming in March too?

[4theplayers]

Yes, March 31st.

[DigitalRaptor]

And Yakuza Zero, if you know Japanese.

http://www.dualshockers.com...

[Mega24]

Trying to get them clicks huh?

[98xpresent]

Kinect fruit ninja 2 wtf!?!?!?!?

[zsquaresoff]

Its a worthy opponent to Bloodborne :p

[MasterCornholio]

Prepare to slice fruit.

Err

I meant Prepare to die.

;)

[PeaSFor]

holy shit....with fuit ninja2 releasing for kinect, they should cancel BloodBorne.

[ThanatosDMC]

The story will be on par with Last of Us. It's going to be epic.

[Bhuahahaha]

NINJA!!!

[SniperControl]

Lol, yeah i thought that as well.

[RosweeSon]

Yeah it's bad news when one of your major exclusives for your next gen console is a new Kinect game which I thought they'd removed now anyway, which also happens to be the sequel to a 69/79p Iphone app, that's out of this world innovation?!

[TheLastColossus]

You can't compare an indie game to a AAA real exclusive

[DarXyde]

But... Ori and the Blind Forest, man. I REALLY want to play that game. It looks amazing.

Granted, I'm still bloodborne and Toukiden kind of guy, but Ori will undoubtedly be awesome.

[Hx3KinG]

Ori >>> Ryse, so yeah, indies can compare

[MysticStrummer]

"You can't compare an indie game to a AAA real exclusive"

You can if you understand what AAA means.

[Condemnedman]

the order 1886 yep that indie movie..... I mean fame lol

[StormLegend]

Good month! We can't forget about those awesome multiplats. So March is looking great! plenty to play...

[Yetter]

Im looking forward to State of Decay, Screamride, Ori and Neverwinter so I guess pretty much everything on the list. Plus WhiteNight is coming out and it looks really interesting to me. I'm sure there are a few more indies that are going to be released that we don't know about, Lovers in a Dangerous Space Time must be close and where is CupHead?? Haven't seen anything on that game forever.

On the Playstation side of things I'm looking forward to Helldivers but thats about it. BloodBorne looks really great but I've never been able to get into a souls game so I doubt it will appeal to me

[Tedakin]

Ori is the only game on that list I care about.

[Toiletsteak]

Same, i am really looking forward to it.

[christocolus]

i'm also looking forward to ori,that game looks,sounds and plays like something out of a very good disney movien. The previews have also been really positive and i enjoyed the screamride demo so i'll be picking that up too.

[Spotie]

Not like you've got much to choose from, honestly.

[tinynuggins]

Plenty to choose from in march for both systems. Ori looks phenomenal.

[Tedakin]

On either console, Ori is the only game I care about.

[Zeref]

But... These are not the only games on xbox. There are plenty of other games that have already been released. These are the games for next month.

[SonyAddict]

Because you are to poor to afford PS4!?...SAD

[kwandar]

Unfortunately nothing major (in my opinion Mario Party 10 and Mario v Donkey Kong Tipping Stars while undoubtedly very good aren't my thing) hits the Nintendo Wii U in March but then .... they start dropping ... Xenoblade and Splatoon to start! WOooooo!!

Going to be a good year for everyone!

[kwandar]

Really? Someone had to disagree with this comment?

Wow!

[ashen122]

Wait is there a western release date for xenoblade x yet?

and this is n4g aka n4disagree

[kwandar]

Arghh ... looks like April is Xenoblade X for 3DS .... argh :( I've been wanting it for the Wii U and thought they were hitting at same time.

[STARS]

Bloodborne and MLB 15 The Show for me, can't wait!

[FITgamer]

Same, The first two games i've pre-ordered this gen.

[souldestroyer14]

Bloodborne may give me a reason to pick up a ps4

[Vasto]

Also for Xbox ONe

March 17 Forza Horizon 2 Fast And The Furious

[ABizzel1]

OMG, I thought this was a joke, but it's a real standalone product.

Stuck between can't believe this is real, and maybe it might be good.

[slappy508]

Looking forward to Bloodborne, and Ori on my PC

[tinynuggins]

Glad to see you supporting Sony and Microsoft! Both should be great games.

[GMR_PR]

I see what you did there ;)

[slappy508]

Well, personally I don't care if my money goes to Sony or Microsoft. they are just big corporations to me, and this gen my preferred console just happened to be ps4 (x360 was mine last gen), that's not to say I won't look into xbox depending how Quantam Break turns out and especially that dragon game by platinum games. Anyhow my preferred platform remains PC, for a number of reasons including the control scheme of a keyboard and mouse, and yes I am lucky that Microsoft chooses to port some of their xbox games onto PC ori and Fable are very attractive

[04STIBluByU]

Funny how times have changed. The PS brand used to be called The Wait-station. Now the PS has so many games whereas the Xbox has so few, therefore Xbox is the new Wait-station! Crazy how times have changed.

[darx]

Lets be real other than Bloodborne and Helldivers no one is breaking down the door to play those other titles. Are they even available in the US?

[04STIBluByU]

You forgot MLB The Show!

[johndoe11211]

Yeah, because people have already started lining up to get their copy of kinect fruit ninja right?

[darx]

@johndoe
I know I am not but what does that have to do with anything.

[ilikepizza]

times have not changed at all,your next big title is coming holiday 2015 after being downgraded and switched to 30 fps,so far the only ps4 exclusive not pushed back is knack and killzone,good luck with that :D

[04STIBluByU]

You cant say that because E3 always have surprises for both

[SoapShoes]

Incorrect, there's Until Dawn which is not holiday 2015. It's not big exclusive but I can't wait for Tropico 5 on PS4. But your jealous comment shows how you truly feel and that is dissatisfied with Xbox One's lineup.

[remixx116]

???so bloodborne, mlb the show, hell divers and until dawn don't exist in your world huh....also lbp3, guilty gear xrd sign, the last of us re, ffxiv, infamous second son and resogun also all released on time or am I wrong about that??

[JWiLL552]

Come back around Uncharted 4's release to talk about "downgrades" it should be pretty hilarious.

Pre-alpha UC4 shames 99% of other titles.

[TrollityTroll]

You forgot about "Indiestation4" and how nobody buys a console to play indies.
Now all of a sudden games like Ori are "one of the most anticipated games of the year".

My, my, how times change.

[Chevalier]

@Trollity

I agree and find it hilarious that PS4 was called indiestation and it has 'no games' yet here Ori and State of decay it doesn't matter that they're Indies , they're just trying to have a list for Xbone and purposely leaving out Indies on PS4 lists? Remember how games like Guilty Gear Xrd etc. don't matter because they're niche yet suddenly it doesn't matter that Screamride is niche? Guess the goalposts tend to shift around a lot when there's barely any games?

[Yaay4me]

Playstation has always brought the games, they just cant get the type of exposure MS can garner, so the only time when you notice them is when they are overwhelmingly out pacing the competition as is the case this generation or the end of last generation.

[jcnba28]

Well a lot of gamers including myself are still waiting for that amazing AAA exclusive from sony...

[rainslacker]

PS3 is getting most of my money in March. Lots of games releasing for it. PS4 I'm only getting Bloodborne and FF Type-0.

First quarter is rough on my wallet....

[cruzngta]

Where do I sign up for that Kinect Fruit Ninja?!?!?!?!?! Bloodborne and MLB for me. Bloodborne is gonna rock and I cant wait to get my hands on it. Ori should be a real nice game for XB1 fans.

[majiebeast]

So Ori gets listed as Microsoft exclusive last i checked PC is an open platform.

If you are making a list at least do your research Axiom Verge is missing from the list and listing PC/Xbox One games as Microsoft exclusive just to pad the list is pretty sad.

[LexHazard79]

Well since when does PC count among console gamers? I don't care about PC gaming because I don't have a rig. I do however have a Xbox One and PS4. I can't play Ori on PS4, so next best place would be Xbox One.

[MyDietEqualsGames]

Pc in itself is a platform for content consumption, every much so as current or even last gen consoles. All are platforms. Unless you want to move the goal post and claim console exclusive for the sake of a worthless list war.

[LexHazard79]

Since when does PC count among console gamers? I don't care about PC gaming because I don't have a rig. I do however have a Xbox One and PS4. I can't play Ori on PS4, so next best place would be Xbox One.

[MAULxx]

There's quite a bit missing from the list.

[Viryu]

Bloodborne for sure. To be honest though, free Neverwinter Nights is the first reason I might want an Xbox One, so I guess it's a strong month for both consoles.

[Dhampir]

It's already free on PC... and has been for almost 2 years.

[Viryu]

I'm a console only gamer though. I even played FFXIV on PS3/4, and bought a bluetooth keyboard just for it.

[ilikepizza]

neverwinter,ori and the blind forest,forza horizon fast and furious and kinect fruit ninja. Im sold since all 4 can be hard for no more than $40

[PrinceOfAllSaiyans]

Where is MLB 15 The Show ?

[Zefros]

Bloodborne and isn't tekken 7 coming out on consoles in march?

[Dhampir]

tekken comes out in arcades, not consoles.

[Zefros]

the game has released on arcades, the console version is next.

[SonyOnly4]

Check out the new trailer for Xbox One exclusives this year.
https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[bleedsoe9mm]

Check out the new trailer for Playstation 4 exclusives this year.
https://www.youtube.com/wat...

of course both are jokes and neither is true , Fall can't come fast enough for me (uncharted and halo)

[reaperofsouls]

Bloodbourne preorder cancelled ,

Kinect Fruit Ninja 2 pre ordered

lol

[Gore-Content]

By a land slide.

[TheGamez100]

Only ps4 exclusive is bloodborne i believe which is enough for me

[GamerGT]

Decent list of games. Bloodbourne for sure along with a few others but did they leave out Final Fantasy type 0 though for sure that's coming out for PS4 in March also.

[DialgaMarine]

In terms of pure exclusives... Kinect Fruit Ninja 2 vs. BloodBorne. lol... Are people actually trying to have this debate? Jesus Christ...

[tinynuggins]

Nobody is debating fruit ninja and bloodborn.

[kstap33]

Only you.

[bleedsoe9mm]

nothing for me in march on any console , does the pc have anything good

[Predaking77]

Bloodborne is the leader of March. Is going to be amazing.

[Ch1d0r1]

Neverwinter is kinda fun on PC, i hope its also free to play on the XBone. Going through the comments no one hardly mentioned it. And wasn't Neverwinter supposed to be a F2P launch title for the PS4? Warframe and Warthunder made it over, i guess Neverwinter decided to back off.

[OllieBoy]

PS4 kills the competition yet again. Even the Vita has a better lineup than the XB1.

[gamertk421]

Ori, Neverwinter and Screamride? What a great March!!!

[MultiConsoleGamer]

Hotline Miami 2 and Bloodborne will both be mine!

[captainexplosion]

Bloodborne, MLB, OlliOlli 2, Hotline Miami, and Helldivers is a hell of a lineup. Even Vita has a good month. Only game I'm really interested in is OlliOlli 2 (and maybe Helldivers.)

[AutoCad]

How about you compare the lineup from launch till now..
hmm i wonder who wins.

[64commando]

Bloodborne, Hotline Miami 2, MLB 15 the Show, Helldivers, VS. Kinect Fruit Ninja 2 and Ori and the Blind Forest... Hmmm who wins?

[tweet75]

id bet big money the xbox one will die out by 2016

[thexmanone]

I bet Sony will be bankrupt by the end of 2016.

Back on topic:

I`m sure Bloodborne will be a good game for the PS4 fans. At least lets hope so. But i have to admit that the Xbox does not have anything good this month. But there are a lot of good multi plat games coming out that will hold me over. So its not a problem.

[RocknRolla]

Helldivers and Bloodborne alone do it for the PS4 in March cannot wait.

[masterfox]

lol Fruit ninja :D

[Jovahkiin]

Im getting Bladestorm ...

Haters hate us cause they ain't us.

[LoveSpuds]

I really hope that all the people expressing their interest in Bloodborne follow through and make this the most successfull "souls" game to date, its no more than From Software deserve.

I cannot wait for Bloodborne and think I will add Battlefield and Helldivers to the list.

[SpinalRemains138]

We will.

This game is going to sell well. Its going to have legs too, for those who haven't picked up a PS4 yet.

[Father__Merrin]

another ps4 win

[MidnightMay0r]

Can we please stop acting like screamride is good. The demo is not fun at all.

[cyber_daemonx]

Bloodborne vs Kinect Fruit Ninja 2.

Lol

@LoveSpuds, pre-ordered day 1 for me. Bloodborne is gonna be epic, cant wait.

[peshkavusCA]

Sony wins. No contest :)
