It's on Steam.

very small team and Microsoft is "super happy", I wouldn't expect the next game they make to be on PS4/PS3/Vita/WiiU

If Microsoft keeps funding their games, which is increasingly likely given Ori's success, I don't see why they wouldn't?
On PC as well.
You're right, my bad.
Publisher: Microsoft Studio
SMH, not even 50 posts before port begging.
OT, good news for them, I'll be sure to buy it myself soon

It derailed the whole thread....
I don't even own an XB1 or gaming PC and I find it annoying.
lol, the dude didn't say, "Please release Ori on PS4." He's asking their next game be multiplat.
I haven't played Ori yet, but heard good things. Too many awesome indie games coming out. I'll put this on my wishlist on Steam.
Yeah, "please release title on PS4" allows lots of interpretation.
Anyways, glad it was successful. Shout out to that dev saying indie titles don't sell well on XB1.

This is the kind of news I like to read. It's early, but I'm pretty sure Ori and the Blind Forest will be my GotY. I didn't expect to like it quite as much as I did, and now I look forward to all things Moon Studios. Hopefully some of those projects become official sometime soon!
EDIT: LOL at that edit.

So did you mean they should release just some title, anything for PS4, and not specifically Ori?
Yes, of course, Ori isn't going anywhere.

Axiom Verge is currently PS4 only. It's coming to PC and Vita later this year and other platforms likely in 2016.
It'll go on sale and make even more. So this is pretty good

It's a smaller game made by an independent developer with good word of mouth. I imagine it'll have great legs and with sales in the future it should do pretty good numbers. It's on PC too, so I bet we see some good steam sales adding to the numbers as well.
With steam sales/store sales and whatnot, I'd imagine the bigger indie titles have pretty long legs.

And wasn't there a report the game was profitable in the first 24 hours? I suppose that's not an accurate comparison since we don't know the budget of each game, but that is a pretty significant difference.

Great to hear. Looking forward to seeing how they improve in a potential Ori 2 and correct some of the missteps/niggles I have with the original.

Still no mention of the 360 version? I guess it's definitely dead...
Ori is definitely the best game I've played all year, and one of my favorites of the last few years.
Man, just thinking about the epic escape sequences makes me want to go back and play it again. So unbelievably gorgeous, both visually and from the soundtrack, the story knocked me back with the game's intro, and I loved how all the powerups worked.

Oh ok, that message left lot of room for interpretation.
On topic, I really hope they go for that "huge" they are referring to. Hard to imagine what it could be. Haven't played Ori since I lost my nerve when I play escaping parts in platformers. But I love to just watch it being played in Twitch, so beautiful and challenging.
It's not significant without knowing how much each game cost to make.

still on the website for later in the year. I still think its coming.
Steam titles have a massive tail.

I am deeply sorry for insinuating that I was port begging, of which I genuinely wasn't.
Bish, have mercy.
Pretty sure port begging is no longer a bannable offence...

1 man dev team for Axiom Verge. Big difference right there in budget.
We don't even know how it sold on the plattforms.
Oh I thought it had launched simulataneously on Vita. I think the PC version is slated for June.

That';s excellent, congrats to Moon Studios!
He was asking a general question about digital titles. I gave him a general answer.
Specific platform sales are irrelevant in the context of that discussion.
It's around 140k on Steam according to that website.

Still waiting for a patch. Disappointed with their time to patch, both Axiom Verge and Bloodborne got patches out faster. Also considering it looks like on the PC some users have put together their own fix/mod for the save while crouching related glitches...

Test it out in a Bloodborne thread and report back to us.
Are you implying that mods are selectively choosing when to ban people for port begging, due to some sort of bias?
