Xbox's Apology to Enotria Changes Devs' Tune, But Release Date Still Unset

Following reported delays in the Xbox certification process, Microsoft has issued an apology to Jyamma Games, developer of Enotria: The Last Song. This apology comes after the developer publicly voiced frustration over a two-month period of silence from Microsoft regarding their Xbox submission.

Microsoft's Apology and Jyamma Games' Response

The delay prompted Jyamma Games to indefinitely postpone the Xbox release of Enotria. Jyamma CEO Jacky Greco expressed his disappointment on Discord, stating the company's frustration with the lack of response from Microsoft. However, following Microsoft's apology, Jyamma Games expressed gratitude on Twitter (X), specifically thanking Phil Spencer and his team for their swift response and assistance. They also acknowledged the significant support from their player community.

Jyamma Games confirmed they are now actively collaborating with Microsoft to expedite the Xbox release, although a concrete release date remains unconfirmed. Greco further detailed the positive exchange on the game's Discord server, confirming Microsoft's apology and commitment to resolving the issue.
