Teoretic pare posibil, developerii trebuie sa-si faca propriile apps pentru jocuri, iar incasarile in-game merg prin Apple, care ia 30%, pe care si Microsoft ii vrea. Daca cere tot 30%, developerul ar ramane cu 40%. Cam putin. S-ar multumi Microsoft cu 5%-10%?

Apple’s rules mean that if a streaming game service has 100 games, then each of those games will need an individual App Store listing as well as a developer relationship with Apple. The individual games also have to have some basic functionality when they’re downloaded. All the games and the stores need to offer in-app purchase using Apple’s payment processing system, under which Apple usually takes 30% of revenue.
Apple App Store new rules will affect Google Stadia, Microsoft xCloud
Update cu raspunsul Microsoft:
“This remains a bad experience for customers. Gamers want to jump directly into a game from their curated catalog within one app just like they do with movies or songs, and not be forced to download over 100 apps to play individual games from the cloud. We’re committed to putting gamers at the center of everything we do, and providing a great experience is core to that mission.”
