They were promoting the f out of it last year, apparently the ole X just ain’t strong enough.

It's coming out this summer.  MS also has released Series X trailer for it.

Honestly though the fanbase for these type of sim games is pretty much found exclusively on PC.

Recently?

They're doing a lot of work to it.  They're vastly improving the streaming tech as well as improving all the models and details by hand on a location-by-location basis.  They're working on the DX12U renderer as well, which will bring HUGE CPU performance improvements to the game (and probably allow this game to be realized on consoles in the first place)

 

They're also adding content and such.

 

On PC, you can release a game in an early state and build upon it, and the userbase generally accepts that model of development.. but on console, they really need more of a "package" to sell.  Not to mention with a game like this, there's bugs and things that pop up all over the place.  It's extremely detailed, so giving the game the time it needs is for the best anyway.

Ghostz we know you made this thread not to diss X but because you are secretly looking to cop the sim game on X.
