Aw, powbam, you should know me better than that. Not that I don’t make mistakes of course, but …

"StrUktO:how are you doing on the xbone port?
It’s kinda going through the certification process. We have to check all the boxes before it can be put up on the Xbox marketplace effectively."

"kenm130 : How is the xbox port progressing? Any updates?
I don’t have any major news for you in that regard. It is progressing, Rhis is working hard on that. It’s basically going through all the certification steps. Actually I think most recently it’s had some testing requirements which need to be done followed by more certification stuff. So it’s coming, it’s rolling."
However, as I said right at the beginning of this thread Crate want to do the Xbox port as a bundle, i.e. base game and both expansions rather than sell them separately so of course until FG is finished they can’t do that. When Crate said it was going through certification back in 2018 they hadn’t decided they would bundle the game for Xbox.

"PeredurJoL: is there a release date for the xbox version of the game?
The Xbox version is coming along. I will tell you that it will almost certainly come out after Forgotten Gods. The reason for that is that it would make sense, most likely, what we’ll do is actually make the Xbox version a bundle of all expansions and the base game. That way there’s not going to be any fragmenting of the community on the console version."
We also don’t know what requirements may be being added/changed for the game to pass Xbox certifcation. These from May and June 2019 respectively.
"Stonewall6915 : xbox version ever coming
Yes, it is absolutely coming. We’re sorry we’re not giving you more active updates in that regard, but it’s just not at a point where we can tell you confidently it’s coming out this day. Even just talking to Rhis, one of our programmers who’s involved in the Xbox port, just last week and there’s actually potentially going to be some more optimizations coming to the game, again courtesy of the Xbox port, but it does mean several things have to happen before we can even get into releasing the Xbox port for you, but don’t worry it’s coming. It’s great. I hope you guys enjoy it on console."
"EnemyEX : any news on the Xbox One version yet?
The work on that is obviously not finished. Just with this patch actually you guys got voice chat functionality built into the game and that was something that was required for the Xbox. I have a feeling, not 100% confirmed yet, that there’ll be some optimisations coming next patch. Not like the next hotfix, but the next big patch we’ll be doing that should include optimisations that are aimed for the Xbox, but will benefit the game. Specifically involving lighting calculations and lighting has been actually very taxing on this game in the past so should actually have a notable improvement on that for people in the game."
