Developing for PCs first doesn’t remove the combinatory explosion of components they need to develop and test for. While developing for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, you only need to get things working with 3 different AMD GPUs and CPUs. If they only supported 3 different PC configurations and refuse to run Nvidia or Intel they would get skewered.
So if they’d develop for PC first then it’d be easier to port to consoles. Got it.
