Xbox Release Status Update
Despite rumors fueled by Spanish YouTuber eXtas1s predicting a July 2024 release, developers confirmed Xbox versions require more time:
"While we aim for maximum accessibility, adding platforms demands significant resources. Current development schedules prevent immediate Xbox support, but we'll announce progress when possible."
Though disappointing for Xbox players, this official confirmation provides clarity while maintaining hope for future availability.
