Microsoft Xbox fans were in for quite a fright not too long ago. A slew of rumors hit the web suggesting that Xbox was bowing out. There wouldn’t be new consoles, and first-party titles would launch on competitor platforms, and it really painted a doom-and-gloom picture. Now, a new report suggests there are even more disheartening comments made from third-party publishers.

Thanks to VGC, we’re finding out that a recent comment by Gamesindustry.biz’s Chris Dring suggests that Microsoft is in trouble. Chris’ podcast episode spoke of his time at GDC last week where he managed to speak with a couple of publishers. It’s not stated who these publishers were, but apparently, there were similar comments from a big-name publisher with a major release last year, along with a smaller publisher.

Apparently, the larger publisher that released a major port for the Xbox stated that they don’t know why they bothered supporting the Xbox Series X/S platform as the market for their company is PC and PlayStation 5. Others have apparently chimed in with similar comments, which might make things even harder for Xbox as it attempts to compete against the likes of PlayStation and Nintendo.

All three main platforms posted sales drops in February. PS5 is most resilient, with sales down just 2% year-on-year, Switch – which has just turned seven years old– is down 17%, while Xbox continues to struggle with Series S and X sales down 47%.
