We have heard how Xbox needs to make gaming extra accessible and with this in thoughts, Obsidian’s studio design director Josh Sawyer has now responded to a query in regards to the concept of the medieval role-playing title Pentiment coming to Swap.
Talking to TouchArcade, he talked about how there’s nothing that might stop it “technologically” being on Swap. As for his personal private ideas, Sawyer would like to see the Xbox and PC unique on as many platforms as potential sooner or later:
Josh Sawyer: “I believe it’s potential. I believe due to the Steam Deck, lots of people instantly ask, may this be on Swap? I believe that there’s nothing that might stop it technologically from being on Swap. I’d love the sport to be on as many platforms as potential, however time will inform.”
When Pentiment initially launched on Xbox, PC and Sport Move it was praised by critics. Our sibling web site Pure Xbox even awarded it 9 out of 10. This is what it needed to say:
“Pentiment is likely one of the most original and intelligent video games we have performed in a really very long time. It could be the fabulous artwork fashion that first attracts you to this one, and it actually is sort of the looker, but it surely’s really the very apparent care that is been poured into the narrative and the exacting element in each side of the world-building right here that finally ends up promoting the entire thing so properly. With a narrative that actually goes some locations, tons of historical past to find out about, a number of implausible characters to satisfy and loads of enjoyable and surprises alongside the way in which, that is one medieval homicide thriller it is best to completely take a look at as quickly because it hits Xbox Sport Move.”
Obsidian beforehand launched Pillars of Eternity on the Swap in 2019, a title that ended up saving the corporate after a profitable Kickstarter marketing campaign. Sadly, the sequel to this hit RPG ended up being cancelled for the hybrid platform, with a affirmation of this final 12 months.
Just lately, Obisidan’s father or mother firm Xbox accomplished its acquisition of Activision Blizzard, with the boss Phil Spencer mentioning how the workforce wished Nintendo followers to really feel “100% a part of the Name of Responsibility nation”.
