What's the metric of success then? Did it lead to a big increase in sub numbers? It also had access to the large steam playerbase what most PC gamers stick to. MS hide all those numbers, so we're not allowed to suggest an Xbox game sold low because of GP, but we don't get any GP numbers lol.
I'm not suggesting it completely flopped, just going by what NPD has reported and certain fans have been saying it's sold really well despite no numbers and this rep...
MS hid gamepass numbers and sales following black ops 6, you can be sure as hell they won't reveal it after this either.
Edit: well shame they don't show us the numbers if that's the case, and Xbox sales still continued to plummet despite CoD :)
Indy at #14 for the month across multiple platforms in Xbox's 'best' region, 3 month old supposed Astro Bot at #8, up from #13 the previous month, can't wait to see how this gets spun lol.
The alt won't be happy with this comment lol.
I might be wrong, but I thought playstation was Sony's biggest money maker?
Yeah a hilarious statement, we have no sales numbers for indy, only people clinging on to it being 2nd in a week absent of other big releases in one region, a solid game but don't think it's sold all that well so far, unsurprising when you put it on gamepass on a console who's userbase isn't exactly known for buying games en masse these days.
Dominating so much they had to spend 80 billion to continue to release them on playstation anyway, due to plummeting console sales and stagnant gamepass numbers.
Guys just mark as spam and move on, it's the same butthurt alt troll, MS can't even buy a GOTY nominee with 80 billion let alone make or win one lmao.

*Big long MS apologist paragraph*
Despite all of that Sony and Nintendo provide profit numbers for their gaming divisions, MS do not, maybe mislead is the wrong word, but hiding the numbers is true, and some could definitely consider that misleading.
The fact that MS don't share this, console sales or gamepass numbers especially in wake of Black Ops 6 tells me most of what I need to know tbh.
I hope the silver lining here is that they've realised, they had a big hit with Helldivers 2, a big flop with concord, several cancellations, MS clearly rolled back on any notion of yoinking Activision live service games away, so there's no need to be working on 12 or however many at once which was always absurd imo.
Time to refocus for towards the end of this gen and next and realise truly how hard is it to penetrate the biggest live service games out there, and fo...
Wait what, you're telling me bluepoint was wasted by having them working on live service slop? WTF.
Yeah that is true, but they still mislead and hide important metrics such as profits from their xbox division. They said Hifi Rush was a success by some mysterious metric and then proceeded to close the studio anyway, luckily it was rescued by a buyer, but my point is you can't really take what MS say at face value with all the context included, they've been doing this with their xbox business for nearly a decade.
Well, MS often hide real numbers from their Xbox division such as profit, don't give out console numbers for almost a decade, and no longer give out gamepass numbers even after supposedly having one of the most popular CoD games ever released recently, so what are people supposed to think?
All you Xbox leaning guys can do is bring up a PC or Nintendo shield, she clearly mentioned console only, sure PC will beat it out of the gate, at a much higher cost.
Did find it funny that the recently released steam data shows most still play at 1080p though.
Obviously another alt account holding up the Nintendo shield today deflect from Xbox failures lol. Just mark and don't bother engaging.
Duplicate account #2648307.
These are also numbers from just after BO6 being released on gamepass. Series sales are even lower despite that, so much for that I guess, a real bloodbath.
It's the same guy who's been doing it for months, xbox's continuing transition to releasing more and more 1st party games on their direct competitors platform has caused him a lot of mental issues it seems lol.
Hahah look at him, not even cod could boost console sales and no numbers for the supposedly massively successful indiana Jones according to jez lol.
Nintendo defence shield activate!
Okay this actually looks great, I thought the series was dead after the woeful 3rd game.
