A recent Game Developers Conference survey shows a clear preference for PS5 and Switch over Xbox among developers. While 80% are keen on PC, only 20% want to develop for Xbox, which is now seen more like a mobile platform. Interestingly, many of these developers had previously released titles on Xbox.
The survey also reveals a rising interest in handheld gaming, particularly the Steam Deck. With Xbox pushing to launch major titles on multiple platforms, this developer sentiment might complicate Microsoft’s console strategy. What do you think this means for the future of Xbox?
