Matt Booty Explains Why Xbox Ditched Its $80 Price Tag For Outer Worlds 2 & Other Games

Earlier this year, Microsoft announced that it was ditching a planned price increase for The Outer Worlds 2 and other "full priced holiday releases", presumably in response to poor sales and negative feedback.

Now, Xbox Game Studios boss Matt Booty has explained that Xbox wants to achieve "player satisfaction and deliver "player value" whilst also "needing to run the healthy business", and therefore it's a balancing act that they're going to continue working on.
