Why Port Your Godot Game to Xbox?

Xbox Series X|S gives your game access to a large, engaged player base across both console and PC through Xbox Play Anywhere, and the ID@Xbox programme has made Microsoft one of the most developer-friendly platforms in the industry. A Microsoft Store listing, potential Game Pass exposure, and Xbox Live's social features all combine to give your game a meaningful second life after its PC launch.

What We Handle

Certification

Microsoft's Certification Requirements cover everything from Quick Resume to network error handling to accessibility. We prepare your submission, address certification failure points proactively, and manage the certification process to approval.

📦

Smart Delivery

Smart Delivery lets players buy your game once and get the right version for their console — Xbox One or Series X|S — automatically. We configure cross-gen Smart Delivery packages and ensure both versions meet their respective certification requirements.

🏅

Xbox Live Achievements

Achievement lists must be designed, submitted to Microsoft, and approved before your game can ship. We design your achievement set, handle the approval process with Microsoft, and implement all unlock logic within your Godot game.

Quick Resume

Quick Resume lets players switch between multiple games and instantly resume where they left off — without a loading screen. We implement correct suspend/resume handling in your Godot game so it passes Microsoft's Quick Resume certification requirements.

🌐

Xbox Live & Online Services

Cloud saves, multiplayer sessions, leaderboards, and presence. We handle Xbox Live service integration and ensure all network error paths are handled correctly — a common source of certification failures.

🏪

Microsoft Store Publishing

We prepare all store assets and metadata for Microsoft Store submission: screenshots, trailer, age ratings, content descriptors, and pricing setup across regions. We can also advise on ID@Xbox programme requirements.

Xbox Porting — FAQ

Common questions about porting Godot games to Xbox Series X|S.

Do you support Xbox One as well as Xbox Series X|S?
Yes. We can target Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, or both via Smart Delivery. We assess cross-gen viability during the initial technical assessment — Godot 4 games using modern rendering features may not be viable on Xbox One without significant work.
How long does a Godot Xbox port take?
A typical Godot Xbox port takes 3–5 months end-to-end: technical assessment, initial build, Xbox Live integration, achievement implementation, Smart Delivery configuration, QA, and XR certification. Online multiplayer or cross-gen Smart Delivery builds may add time.
What is XR certification and do you handle it?
XR (Xbox Requirements) is Microsoft's mandatory certification process for Xbox titles. Common failure areas include network error handling, Quick Resume compatibility, achievement implementation, and accessibility requirements. We prepare your submission and manage every resubmission cycle to approval.
Do you implement Xbox achievements and Xbox Live features?
Yes. Xbox Live achievements, cloud saves, leaderboards, and multiplayer sessions are all in scope. Achievement lists need to be designed and submitted to Microsoft early in the project — we start this process as soon as the game's content is finalised.
Can my Godot game be on Xbox Game Pass?
Game Pass inclusion is a publishing deal made directly with Microsoft — it's not part of the porting process itself. However, we ensure your game meets all the technical requirements that make it Game Pass eligible, including Quick Resume support, Smart Delivery, and the accessibility features Microsoft now expects.
