Xbox’s Game Pass & Console Strategy Is Brilliant & You Won’t Change My Mind
Many Xbox owners are upset over the recent news that Xbox will be bringing more exclusives to the PS5, but there’s a method behind the madness.
Enotria: The Last Song Has Struggled With Microsoft Before
This Isn’t The First Xbox Cancelation
As concerning as it is to hear Microsoft “ignore” an indie developer attempting to launch a game on Xbox, this isn’t the first time Jyamma Games has butted heads with the corporation. Back in March 2024,the studio announced that it was suspending development on an Xbox port ofEnotriato “ensure a superior experience for PC and PlayStation 5 players.“The original statement on the matter said Jyamma Games would “re-evaluate the possibility” of an Xbox version post-launch.
That decision was ultimately reversed only to be turned on its head again following the latest news regarding Microsoft’s handling ofEnotria. For its part,Xbox has yet to respond to the complaint but many players are calling on the platform to acknowledge the issueand fix the problem. Whether that happens remains to be seen but in terms of PR, it would bea good idea for Microsoft to respondaccordingly.
While the jury is still out onEnotria: The Last Song, the game’s demo managed to impress players with itscombat and unique visual aesthetic.Based on Italian mythology and folklore, the game is slated to arrive on September 19, so those eager to become a Maskless One and slay all manner of sinister creatures don’t need to wait too much longer. Unfortunately forXboxusers, whetherEnotriaever comes to the Series X|S remains to be seen.
