Needs crossplay.
Thatâs great news. The fighting game genre really needs a boost on Xbox.
I wish guilty gear strive was on Xbox. Iâm playing it on PC and it It is a truly amazing game.

Pc game pass isnât as simple as xbox. Publishers arenât going to cannibalize other stores sales or contracts to put it on gamepass for a competing store on the same platform. This is why games like outriders wasnât on pc gamepass. Itâs much easier to do deals for xbox gamepass. Pc has steam and epic store and publishers arenât going to out their games on pc day 1 as itâs a huge revenue stream. Ms would have to pay well over the odds as well isnât viable for most 3rd party games
Iâm fine with console gamepass tbh. I barely game on pc and when I do I get cheap steam sales.
NEW Trailer today. So glad this is coming to Xbox. 14 skipped xbox and i was very VERY worried this would too. Donât want PS5 to have a monopoly on japanese Fighting games this gen.
Canât wait. Day one buy for me.

Iâm glad so many games are sticking with the $60 price. It skipping Xbox One is surprising, though.

70 bucks seems to be a Sony and greedy ass publishers like ea and activision thing
And youâre right. Didnât notice it wasnât coming to Xbox one. So effectively snk gave up on the Xbox one for KF because 13 was a 360 game.

Why no Xbox One? it coming to PS4 so. Also it looks like it could run on Xbox 360 lol it not anything amazing looking so what their excuse?
Dope! This is great news
Theyâre japaneseâŚXD
Jokes aside, I canât find a reasonable one, itâs not for tech issues, the game seems straight from 10 years ago, maybe is another Sony malicious deal, or maybe the only like the make no sense, like Judgement Series only and Lost Judgment on X1, lmao.
Got my eye on this one. Iâll probably skip it at launch and wait for some kind of all-DLC-included edition, but it looks neat. Glad to see Xbox get more fighting games.

Excuse is probably limited resources and a native Series XS version was easier and more convenient due to them making a next gen version to begin with. Also they havenât put a single game on Xbox one so maybe they thought it was pointless and wanted to focus on one box line of consoles instead of two.
I can understand it. Iâm just grateful its coming out on any box system at all.
And the way it looks has nothing to do with it. If that was the case why not put it on Switch?
Sony wouldnât pay to have a last gen exclusive lol. I know they waste money on deals but this isnât one of them.
And Judgement Port was developed for next gen only. Since Lost Judgement is coming out for PS4 they developed the PS4 XO versions together as theyre both last gen systems.
Could they have put Judgement on XOâŚprobably. But they clearly didnât want to do the extra work.
Anyway you put it these devs/pubs always make confusing decisions concerning Xbox.
Not confusing. Just a bit unfair at times.
At this rate, itâs very likely Series consoles will have sold more in Japan at the time of this gameâs release than the entirety of Xbox One generationâs sales. The skipping of Xbone is weird, but kinda understandable in this context

I think Japan hardware sales are irrelevant for xbox. Devs sort of ignore it completely. They look at western sales and right now ps5 and XSX/S are neck and neck in NA and the sales is a lot closer than it was between ps4 and XO.
Expected it would come. SNK spoke publicly about how their exclusivity for fighting games with Sony bit them in the ass, and Samurai Showdown was apparently well received on xbox given their support.
I find particularly amusing when these deals backfire, like SFV lol.

Speculative, but I would suggest that Sony tied all these fighting games into deals where they couldnât come to the Xbox One, but the deals said nothing about Xbox Series, so unless they sign a new deal they can come to the new Xboxes. That would be my guess anyway.
