XIO: Survival

Status: Abandoned(?)

Post Updated March 2023

• The game was released on June 30th, 2022, by developer FOUR and publisher Dirty Bird Games. 
• It was honestly pretty crap from the start. Generic assets and concepts paired with a buggy execution. A lot of drama. Creators were getting into it with the developer. The reviews are ALL negative. The developer constantly complained in Discord. 
• Right now, the game appears dead; there have been no updates/posts to Steam news since October 2022. 
• Plot twist! The same folks behind XIO: Survival are behind an upcoming game called Peak.53. This time, they listed FOUR as the publisher, adding Dirty Bird Games as the developer but tacking on an ‘Inc.’ This lessens the chance of easily stumbling across XIO while examining Peak. Will they make this another asset flip cut & run with a funding campaign? Hard to say. But don’t keep high hopes based on previous behavior.
