Bloober Team’s latest psychological horror hit, The medium, has already made a profit from sales on PC and Xbox.
In an interview with Polish publication Money.pl (via GameSpot), the development studio noted that The Medium has already recouped its development and marketing costs, meaning that any income from now on is pure profit.
That’s a nice win for the game, considering it’s only available on two platforms right now (PC and Xbox Series S | X; not available on Xbox One). The development team hasn’t shared a breakdown of the game’s performance, so we don’t know how much the Xbox Game Pass deal contributed to the success of the game.
Our own Tom Orry pointed out that The Medium is the latest example of Game Pass’ brilliance and wrote how Microsoft’s subscription service gives fringe titles like the latest from Bloober Team the opportunity to find an audience and gives people the opportunity. to discover new experiences at the same time. hour.
Given that the game is already a financial success, it shows other developers and Microsoft that there is certainly appeal to the service.
Xbox Game Pass has attracted over 15 million subscribers, and between convincing EA to come on board starting November 10 and adding cloud streaming at no additional charge, we expect that number to rise again.
