Microsoft has announced that they are putting all downloadable games (from full retail releases, Xbox Live Arcade and Indie Games) into one silo for Xbox One. This means that smaller indies will need to find a way to work within the standard Xbox publishing rules.
“We intend to continue to court developers in the ways that we have,” said Microsoft general manager of Redmond game studios and platforms Matt Booty. “I would also expect that for this new generation, that we’re going to continue to explore new business models and new ways of surfacing content. But Microsoft Studios is a publisher that works with a wide range of partners, as do a lot of other people, to bring digital content to the box.”
