News inside jeuxvideo.com It’s stiff for the Xbox – LaPetitePelle draws JeuxVideo.com – N°473
On this weekend, with LaPetitePelle, how not to mention the Redfall affair? The latest Microsoft exclusive, released on May 2, unfortunately did not convince the press and the players.
Yet developed by the talents of Arkane Austin (Prey of 2017), Redfall, the latest Microsoft exclusion to date, has not achieved its objectives… On the ratings aggregator “Metacritic”, supposed to represent a kind of consensus on the side of specialized media, the FPS with vampire sauce wins a 59/100. “The critical response was not what we wanted, and that’s disappointing” recently confessed Phil Spencer, boss of Xbox, at the microphone of Kinda Funny Xcast… “There is nothing more difficult for me than to disappoint the Xbox community (…) I am angry with myself” ! The man thus wants to “review” the development process of his teams, without however creating pressure. “I want to give Xbox studios a creative platform to pursue their desires, but I also need to have games capable of delighting our fans”, notes Phil Spencer. Released on May 2, 2023 on PC and Xbox Series X | S, Redfall mixes “immersive sim”, open world and cooperative survival game à la Left 4 Dead. It is criticized in particular for certain questionable design choices, a lot of bugs and, more generally, a disappointing result in terms of Arkane’s reputation. Two weeks before its arrival, the title was also the subject of a controversy: it runs “only” in 30fps on Xbox Series X.
