Following a reported apology from Microsoft, Jyamma Games has expressed gratitude and renewed hope for the Xbox release of their debut title, Enotria: The Last Song.
Microsoft's Apology Resolves Enotria Xbox Release Delays
Jyamma Games Appreciates Phil Spencer and Community Support
Microsoft's apology to Jyamma Games follows a significant delay in the Xbox certification process for Enotria: The Last Song. The delay, lasting over two months, prompted Jyamma Games to announce an indefinite postponement of the Xbox release earlier this week. Jyamma CEO Jacky Greco previously voiced frustration on the game's Discord, stating that Microsoft appeared unresponsive and that the delay, impacting a completed Xbox Series X/S version, had incurred significant porting costs.
However, a swift response and apology from Microsoft, specifically acknowledging the oversight, has significantly altered the situation. Jyamma Games publicly thanked Phil Spencer and his team on Twitter (X) for their prompt action and assistance. The studio also acknowledged the significant support from their player community, whose vocal advocacy played a crucial role in resolving the issue.
Jyamma Games is now actively collaborating with Microsoft to expedite the Xbox release. While a specific release date remains unconfirmed, the developer's tone has shifted from frustration to cautious optimism.
Greco further elaborated on the situation within Enotria's Discord server, confirming Microsoft's apology and commitment to resolving the matter quickly.
This incident highlights recent challenges faced by developers in releasing titles on the Xbox platform. Funcom recently reported optimization difficulties with their Xbox Series S port of Dune: Awakening. While the PS5 and PC releases of Enotria: The Last Song remain scheduled for September 19th, the Xbox release date remains uncertain.
