Microsoft tried to deflect negative reviews by convincing gamers that millions had joined the game, thanks to the power of Game Pass. It recently became clear that Microsoft cannot conceal certain facts. As is well known, legal proceedings related to the Activision acquisition are currently underway, providing an interesting perspective on several matters.
As Florian Mueller wrote on Twitter, a public statement released by Microsoft reads that Redfall “generated minimal sales.”
No specific figures were provided in the statement. It can be assumed that poor review scores and general critical reception mean that, although some people tried giving the game a chance on Game Pass, few were willing to actually purchase the vampire shooter.
