Italian studio Zyma Games’ Soulslike game “Enotria: The Last Song” will not be released for Xbox for now. “Unfortunately, despite our best efforts and the hard work of our dedicated team, we encountered challenges that delayed the release on Xbox platforms,” ​​the studio wrote in an announcement on its website. The game will be released on September 19 for PS5 and PC only. There is currently no new date for the Xbox version.

The background is apparently trouble with Microsoft, as studio employees write on Discord. “Apparently they don’t care about ‘Enotria’ and they don’t care about you either,” wrote Zyma CEO Jackie Greco. According to WindowsCentral On Discord, keeping an eye on Microsoft.
Greco is apparently frustrated by the poor communication: Dem Gaming magazine Insider Gaming He said his studio has been trying in vain for months to get a store page on Microsoft’s Xbox Store. Meanwhile, Microsoft’s studio support has descended into hell, Greco reports. So the studio was passed around between different support staff, but there was no solution in sight.

This isn’t the first time a game developer has gone public with its support frustrations. Indie studio Re-Logic went public with problems with the Stadia port of the game “Terraria” after Google blocked the studio’s account and didn’t respond helpfully to support requests. Like Zyma, Re-Logic is also a small development studio.

Re-Logic’s boss Spinks wrote on Twitter, “I want nothing to do with a company that disrespects its customers and partners so much. Doing business with you is a burden.” Only after he made the matter public was Google able to fix the problem.
This could also be the case with “Enotria: The Last Song”, especially since the story has been well received in the international media. This fits the picture well at present: Microsoft’s Xbox brand has suffered a number of setbacks recently. The hyped action game “Black Myth: Wukong” was only released for PS5 and PC – whether this is due to an exclusive deal or for other reasons has not been conclusively clarified. Many fans are also upset that former Xbox exclusive games such as “Sea of ​​Thieves” and “Pentiment” were later ported to PlayStation.
Microsoft has not yet commented on the anger of the “Enotria” developers.
