The latest statement from Del Walker, one of the developers of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, has sparked major debate in the gaming world. Walker claimed that developing a game for the Xbox Series S was very difficult and stated that he wished the console had never existed. Here are the details and Walker’s statements…
Walker: “I wish the Xbox Series S never existed!”
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League producer Del Walker caused a stir in the gaming world by sharing on Twitter, “I wish the Series S never existed. Optimizing for this console is so frustrating. I think more games will be skipped by Xbox in the future.”
Walker’s words once again highlight the technical limitations of the Xbox Series S that pose serious challenges for developers. While the Series S attracts gamers with its lower price, it also means additional workload for developers.
Experts say that the Series S’s low RAM and processing power prevent next-gen games from reaching their full potential, forcing developers to either make two separate versions for Series X and S or compromise on the overall quality of the game.
Microsoft, on the other hand, argues that the Series S has a significant market share and that console diversity is beneficial to the gaming ecosystem. However, Walker’s statement suggests that some in the industry disagree with this view.
