The newly independent Psychonauts dev now earns all the revenue when you buy games it made under Xbox: ‘Buying any of our games helps support the studio’

PC Gamer · 2 hours ago

Psychonauts developer Double Fine has become independent and says it now receives all revenue from purchases of games it made while owned by Xbox. The change matters because sales of its existing catalogue will directly support the studio rather than being shared with its former parent company.

The announcement applies to Double Fine’s games made during its time under Microsoft, including titles such as Psychonauts 2. The studio encouraged players to buy any of its games if they wish to support its future work, though the article text provided does not give financial figures or further details of the separation.

  • Double Fine says game sales now directly support the studio.
  • The developer is no longer owned by Xbox.
  • Its existing catalogue may help fund future projects.
