The title of the IGN article seems a bit clickbaity. To quote the actual relevant content:

Xbox was worried about losing Starfield after seeing Bethesda titles like Ghostwire: Tokyo and Deathloop head exclusively to PlayStation.

There's no indication Starfield would have been exclusive without the acquisition, and I'd be incredibly surprised if it would have been, considering it's frequently viewed as "the third series" alongside The Elder Scrolls and Fallout.

Granted I can definitely see the cause for concern, but it seems entirely unwarranted personally.
