Hi. Not an oft OP here. I’m considering making a 2:5D fighting game (think the Smash Bros series). I’ve been considering making the game XBOX only, but I also want it to be viable in terms of a player base. My question is, essentially, is it viable for a game to be XBOX exclusive? Thank you for reading.
Is there really a reason to be Xbox only? Xbox is the least popular device that Roblox is played on, so I can’t see why you would want to cater only to that platform. You would certainly be losing a huge amount of potential players.

This choice was because I wanted to choose the platform most similar to a 3DS/Switch, which ended up being console.
I believe that if you have it Xbox only, you are going to need a good game that people enjoy playing on the console, if you want it to survive.
But you should also question why it should only be for xbox and not other platforms. What are the disadvantages / advantages.
Fm_Trick pretty much says it all, you’ll be losing many players. Does it hurt if your game is released to the other platforms?
It’d probably hurt it’s likeness to the game I’m basing it off of: though, it’s not really my primary idea at this point and it’s on the backburner.
50% of players are mobile, the rest of the percentage is unknown. Roblox doesn’t release full statistics, but you would be cutting half of the player base.
