Grim Dawn: Definitive Edition now available on Xbox!

[Genku]

dont mean to bring up an old post but are there any plans on bringing the loyalty items to xbox? just bought it loving it on console, was just curious as I do see the npcs for the loyalty cosmetics but cant get them?

Thank you for the great port!

[LightningYu]

Yeah i asked that as well, plus Mouse & Keyboard Support would be neat…

Any news for a 4k update?

[sigfredo_arencibia]

Hello. Two questions. Will there ever be a patch for 4K on SX?
And if the dlc will come out on consoles… doesn’t it make the “definitive” version not so definitive?

[J_W]

Great game, but please add a higher resolution. 1080p 60fps for these days is a bit muddy. I think with this engine you could get close to 4k 60fps. Keep in mind im on XSX so obviously im asking for a next gen optimization. Thx devs

Unfortunately but I have to agree on my 55" TV the game does not look very good. The console version needs higher resolution and better shadows to be perfect. FPS drops are on the current resolution anyway so what’s the difference. Other than that, AA smooths nothing, and only blurs the image even more. Apparently they are supposed to look at the console and SD version after FoA comes out. We’ll see…

Despite this, GD on the console plays great and it’s hard to tear yourself away from it, because it’s the same great game as on PC.

Hey,

I’m new to this forum and had a quick question. I was looking to buy the digital version of the game — the Definitive Edition — but for some reason it’s no longer available. Not sure if it’s because of the new DLC announcement or maybe a store region issue?

Cheers!

Welcome to the forum.

I doubt it’s been removed from the store because of the new expansion under development. Did you check with Xbox support?

Hey there,
Same issue here, Grim Dawn is no more available on the French Xbox store although it still is on the US store.
I don’t know what’s going on, I also thought about the future expansion but it doesn’t make sense… Searching for grim dawn on the store returns nothing and when you get to the game’s page from a Google search the purchase button has been deactivated and replaced by a message “not available separately”

It involves some new law that passed in the EU, and Microsoft is now complying with, that requires digital storefronts in the EU to provide a public support address and phone number, among other things.

We simply do not have that. We don’t even have a central office. We could not add them, so the game got delisted.

Not exactly conducive to indie companies that do not meet those requirements (who even physically mails support anymore…).

[medea_fleecestealer]

What! So the game’s not available in the whole of the EU area now? Geeze! Well done EU.

Thanks for the clarification.
It’s a real shame, that means that even if you own the game on Xbox that could be impossible to buy the next expansion

[Gnomish_Inquisition]

wouldn’t be surprised if it’s MS reading too much/wrong into it, eg how games aren’t delisted on Steam or anywhere else - if i had to take a guess, without knowing the detail/which law in question, it’s MS /the store that has to have contact info(is MS contact nr), not the producers of the goods they sell

[Spraynerb]

If that is the case it seems like a clarification is in order for MS. If not, welcome to the wonderful world of regulations on steroids and (un)intended consequences.

[Gnomish_Inquisition]

well yea, it could technically be a case of “every other store/online platform not proper complying” with the new law, because EU making braindead regulations harming smaller business more than big corps while purporting to protect/benefit smaller ones “most” wouldn’t exactly be the first time
but it just seems kinda strange, specially with Steam being big too, and local (online) stores here also still selling indie game keys

What an
I see where this is coming from, but it’s the typical EU type of law where they don’t know what they’re actually doing.

I bet it’s this: The EU’s Digital Services Act

Fighting evil ™ illegal content and societal harms.

[Antiram]

this is going to be fixed somehow, right?

or no expansion on xbox?

[luQ89]

Which means I won’t be playing FoA on a console… “Cool.” Fuck those officials!

[Antiram]

if the game really keeps beeing delistet, the option to redeem the expansion with a code could prevent us poor eu-souls from missing out

or is this done now? are we screwed?

[Pally_Blogger]

It’s much more likely that Microsoft is just being stupid and/or monopolistic. This is the company that previously blocked an update because the branding on a trailer didn’t get updated with requirements created after the trailer and game were on the platform for sale.

Steam and GOG both are able to sell it in the EU.
