It really doesn’t matter how many Capybara shirts Microsoft's Phil Spencer wears: it's not going to stop hotly anticipated Xbox One indie title Below from deploying on other platforms. In an open letter on its blog, the Canadian outfit explained that the game will “go elsewhere” after a short period of exclusivity. “It’s always been this way,” the Toronto-based team added.
The studio went on to praise its partnership with the Redmond-based firm – presumably to soften the impact of any potential burnt bridges. The Critter Crunch developer was eager to avoid mentioning systems specifically, but we suspect that the PlayStation 4 will offer a comfortable home for the roguelike in the future. And that’s a good thing, because the game looks great.

A MS studios game is coming to the PS4... you sure about that? They could be talking about for PC. Seeing this trailer doesn't make me want to play it necessarily. It is interesting though, and looks pretty good.
i'm not feeling blue .. i'm team blue
That looked really nice. It felt like a marriage between PlayStation's Journey and the Big N's Legend of Zelda with the title "What Lies Below" sending my mind to Capcom's upcoming PS4 title "Deep Down". Hopefully, What Lies Below will not only release on PS4 but on PS Vita as well.
@BlueProxy Braid was technically a Microsoft Game Studio title. There are many other examples where this has happened.
It looks good but doesnt, it has a flaw imo. Im not a fan of how high up the camera view. Id like to see the game closer up.
This is one of the few games for the Xbox One that I'm actually interested in, but it looks like I don't even have to buy a Xbox One to play it after all.
