Indie Publisher Plans to Keep Bringing Its Games to Xbox Game Pass

Xbox Game Pass has gained its success off of a diverse range of games added to its library month to month. It's not just AAA games like Xbox's own first-party titles that have thrived, either. Indie games can reach a broad new audience that a traditional release may prevent. Publisher No More Robots, known for releases including Descenders, Not Tonight, Hypnospace Outlaw, and more, has found its partnership with Xbox to its liking. In fact, the next 12 months will prove No More Robots' most active on Xbox Game Pass.

In a series of posts shared on Twitter, No More Robots discussed its ongoing relationship with Xbox and plans for Xbox Game Pass looking toward the future. The first post, capturing just how close a relationship it is, No More Robots shared a photo of the publisher's team with Xbox boss Phil Spencer. Spencer apparently visited No More Robots headquarters in Manchester, UK, to talk to the team. There are also hints the talk revolved around the «future of video games» and Xbox Game Pass.

Indie Publisher Claims Smaller Games Are Not Selling on PS4

As intriguing as the first Twitter post is, the second is all the more promising. No More Robots says that it has a big year ahead of it and that Xbox Game Pass is going to play a major role in that. Specifically, No More Robots says that in the next 12 months it plans to release «more than half a dozen games» on Xbox Game Pass.

To be clear, No More Robots doesn't explicitly state that these will be new games. Even if it's all previously released games, or a mix of previously released titles and new, seven game additions to Xbox Game Pass from a single publisher is an impressive offering. For an indie publisher to manage that is significant, and shows just how much faith
