Big Walk devs explain why it isn't on Xbox and likely never will be, 'not until Microsoft and/or Xbox have been removed as BDS boycott targets'

Big Walk, a popular co-op game, won't be released on Xbox anytime soon. Developer House House confirmed this, stating that the game's intention has always been for players to gather together and enjoy it. This decision, however, disappoints those who had hoped to play Big Walk on Xbox. Microsoft and Xbox are currently on the list of boycott targets due to their involvement with the Israeli military, specifically for using Microsoft's Azure to store data from intercepted telecommunications in Gaza and The West Bank.

House House expressed disappointment in their decision, but believes that meaningful change can be made through coordinated collective action, such as this boycott, ultimately leading to Palestine's freedom.
