How Xbox Game Pass Impacts Game Developers | Defining Duke Ultimate Episode 12
684Mike Rose of No More Robots (Descenders, Yes Your Grace, Hypnospace Outlaw, and more!) joins this week's Defining Duke Ultimate to tell the story of how Xbox Game Pass has impacted the games his publishing label works on. What kind of financial deals are struck for developers and how do the nature of sales alleviate some of the pressure of making a game? Does this shape how games are made? Mike provides the answers. We dive into the metrics available through Game Pass like download and player counts as well as whether or not PlayStation has an upcoming competitor for the service. While this is widely viewed in a favorable manner, Mike even presents some negatives that Xbox Game Pass can bring to the table for studios. All in all, an insight interview that will leave you more informed about Xbox's future platform then when you first began listening.
