Xbox Release Delayed Due to Series S Optimization Challenges

Game Science blames the Xbox Series S's hardware limitations for the delay, contradicting Microsoft's earlier statements denying platform issues.

Black Myth: Wukong, a major 2024 game release, has yet to arrive on Xbox platforms despite its success on PC and PS5.
Game Science CEO Feng Ji cited the Xbox Series S's 10GB of shared memory as the main obstacle, requiring extensive optimization experience to resolve.
Microsoft previously denied that Xbox hardware limitations were the cause, fueling speculation of a potential exclusivity deal with PlayStation, which Game Science has now refuted.
The Xbox Series S's mandatory compatibility policy has created challenges for developers, with past examples like Baldur's Gate 3 also facing delays due to similar issues.
An ESRB rating for an Xbox version suggests a release may still be in development, though no official date has been announced.
