Enotria: The Last Song is an action-fantasy RPG inspired by Italian folklore and set in the Mediterranean.

One of the most exciting games to be released this month is Enotria: The Last Song. Its promise has captivated many users, as it is an action RPG with “souls” style combat, set in Italy and inspired by the country’s folklore. The idea has many similarities with Black Myth: Wukong, which also makes its release timely. One coincidence, however, is unintentional and very unfortunate. Like the Game Science title, the Xbox release of this game has been delayed indefinitely. According to the developers, this is Microsoft’s fault.

Enotria will be PS5-exclusive by “accident”?!

The developers of Enotria: The Last Song claim, via an official statement on their website, that the game’s release on Xbox Series consoles has been postponed indefinitely. They have encountered some challenges in bringing the game to Microsoft’s console, which has caused a lot of controversy in the community. Some users have accused the developer of having entered into a secret exclusivity agreement with Sony. Others claimed that the problem was the alleged lack of performance of the Xbox Series S.

The situation forced the company’s community managers to intervene, who claimed Sony had not paid them.

The problem was not linked to a specific console. But doubts were only dispelled when the CEO of Jyamma Games explained the whole thing: “Obviously they don’t care about Enotria and they don’t care about you. […] The context is open a store page and submission [sic], we’ve Xbox Series X|S version ready, but we can’t proceed with submission and release, I spent a lot of money for porting and they decided to ignore us.” This is a recurring complaint among independent developers.

No further public statement has been made so far. Enotria: The Last Song will be released on September 19 for PS5 and PC. It remains a mystery when the Xbox version will be released. Perhaps now that the complaint has been more widely publicised, it’s only a matter of time before Microsoft’s games subsidiary addresses the matter.
