Absolutely does and absolutely has since 2017. I would have bought it in the good ol' days but instead just downloaded on gamepass. Ideal.

£70 or 7 months GP. I know which works for me. Do what works for you.

As I mentioned above The sand fall devs seem to be happy with sells and that's on GP and Oblivion.

Sand fall is a new dev studio with a jrpg i.p...probably wasn't confident enough to pass on the money for raw sales.the game has sold 4mil, so they're next game won't be day and date with game pass.

@fishy: “Absolutely does and absolutely has since 2017.”
Totally agree with you there.
IF the article is to be believed it sold less than 1/3 the number of active players reported on day 1 but I’ll be fair and say it sold 1/3,
According to a certain community any game that sold a million or less is a flop. 🤷🏿 🤦🏿

7 months or 3.5? Isn’t gamepass $20/month?

What about expedition 33? That sold well as along side Oblivion remaster.

I think It was MS cramming these games together. Especially when you factor in 2 high profile releases. Ppl are still playing Expedition and Oblivion.

Stevonidas2h ago

Expedition 33 was $50 with a 10% discount to those who preordered before release.

You’d think more publishers would realize that lowering the price of your game (especially if its’s on GamePass) would lead to more sales. After all, 70% of $50 is better than 100% of nothing.

Their greed will be their downfall. Good riddance.

It probably does but I don’t think this game was as hype as eternal in general.

Eternal got released for pirate pre-cracked day of release for free and sold very well.

This time around I personally just played it on game pass because I wasn’t feeling it as much as eternal.

Profchaos2h ago

Gave it a pass because it wasn't on the disc ended up borrowing it from a mate played it through in like a week it was fun better than eternal not as good as 2016

Maybe so but GP subscriptions keeps the money coming in.

Obviously not enough was 'coming in', so they had to resort to releasing all their games on Playstation
