The Last Song Delayed On Xbox Indefinitely

Gaining popularity recently with showcases at the recent Summer Games Fest and Gamescom 2024, Enotria: The Last Song is a soul-like game that has impressed gamers with its smooth combat and Italian-focused atmosphere.

Sadly, the developers recently announced on Twitter that Enotria is no longer planned to be released on both the Xbox Series X and Series S consoles, leading to extensive debates and speculation about why they would decide to do this.

Some question whether the souls-like has gotten an exclusive deal with PlayStation, while others challenge whether it’s due to hardware limitations. Yet, these rumors have been shot down, making this an odd situation with very little information.

According to the Twitter announcement, they have yet to correspond with Microsoft as the release date approaches. While they have put time and money into an Xbox release, Microsoft hasn’t attempted to add it to their store. A quote from their Twitter statement reads:

This is frankly quite strange and not something we’ve seen much online. For instance, Xbox added Lies Of P to their consoles last year, another soul-like title from a smaller developer.

Some users have stated that the creators planned to release the game on Xbox after the PS5 and PC editions are fully out or have made this exact announcement in the past.

However, the developers responded that they had gone through separate attempts to get the title on Xbox since then.

Debunking The Rumors

Many of the fan rumors regarding the current state of Xbox have already been debunked. On the one hand, games like Baldur’s Gate, Control, and even the recent Dune Awakening have had development problems due to the less powerful hardware of the Xbox Series S.

On the other hand, some point fingers at an exclusivity deal with PlayStation, which has also been debunked. The developers maintain that this is just an issue with communication between themselves and Xbox publishing.

Funny enough, despite the latest announcement, the main page on Enotria’s website still states that the game is “coming to PC via Steam & Epic Games Store, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.”

We advise everyone not to expect Enotria: The Last Song to be released on the Xbox Series consoles at this time.

Nevertheless, considering the developers are still pushing for it, there’s still slight potential for an Xbox release far in the future despite the indefinite delay.
