The Xbox version of Final Fantasy XVI has failed to enter the platform's top 20 paid games list, indicating weak launch sales performance.
If it ain't on gamepass, they ain't interested.
Great job MS for training most of your player base to not want to actually buy games, maybe SE will realise releasing FF on xbox isn't somehow going to help them match their exaggerated sales targets. Hopefully remake fairs better, probably will on Switch 2 at least.
No game, especially a AAA one, deserves strong sales after taking years to arrive on a platform and still asking the same price as everywhere else. You can’t just ignore a platform for that long and then expect people to be excited by the release. That cycle came and went already, there is no hype for it anymore.
Either you're all in from the start or you're not. This lazy, bare-minimum approach of tossing out a late port and calling it a day shouldn't be rewarded. If you're not willing to respect the platform, don't bother showing up at all.
Survival Kids tries and fails to rekindle an old Konami franchise by bringing it to the Switch 2, but ends up leaving it stranded and to fend for its own.
Fast Fusion delivers frenetic, futuristic racing at a budget-friendly price.
Seeing as there isnt a definitive release date it, Hellblade:Senua's Sacrifice is my pick. I love how they are tackling mental health issues prevalent in todays society
EDIT: if it isnt delayed to 2017, Prey for the Gods is my pick :)
I'm gonna say Cuphead, because I live in eternal hope that this game will eventually get released. I would say Torment, but I'm not sure if that counts as an indie game. Oh! Mount and Blade 2. Definitely.
Definitely Cuphead
I love a good challenge and this is right up my alley
Tokyo 42 for me. Just absolutely love the art-style (isometric low-poly city-scapes, very colourful), the sound/music we heard in the footage released so far, and of course the whole premise, which reminds of Syndicate.
Yooka-Laylee
Kingdom Come: Deliverance
