Following reported delays in the Xbox certification process, Microsoft has reportedly apologized to Jyamma Games for the setback concerning their debut title, Enotria: The Last Song. This apology comes after the developer publicly voiced frustration over a two-month period of apparent inaction from Microsoft.
Microsoft's Apology and Jyamma Games' Response
The delay had led Jyamma Games to announce an indefinite postponement of the Xbox release. Jyamma CEO Jacky Greco previously expressed his disappointment on Discord, highlighting the lack of communication from Microsoft and the significant investment made in porting the game.
However, following Microsoft's apology, Jyamma Games shifted its tone, expressing gratitude on Twitter (X) to Phil Spencer and his team for their swift response and assistance. The studio also acknowledged the significant support from their player community. They are now actively collaborating with Microsoft to bring the Xbox version to market as soon as possible. Greco further detailed the positive exchange on the game's Discord server, confirming Microsoft's apology and commitment to resolving the issue.
Xbox Release Uncertain, Other Development Challenges
While the apology has improved the situation, the Xbox release date for Enotria: The Last Song remains unconfirmed. The PS5 and PC versions are still slated for September 19th. This situation highlights ongoing challenges faced by developers releasing games on the Xbox platform. Funcom, for example, recently reported optimization issues while porting Dune: Awakening to the Xbox Series S.
