As a seasoned gamer who fondly remembers the Xbox 360 era, I can’t help but feel a twinge of excitement at the news of Singularity making a comeback. Back in 2010, this game was one of those hidden gems that didn’t quite make it to the mainstream but held a special place in the hearts of many gamers like myself.
A popular Xbox 360 video game initially discontinued in 2010 is back on sale this week, causing a wave of excitement among gamers who fondly remember the console. The Xbox 360 remains Xbox’s best-selling console and was able to compete with its rival, the PlayStation 3, in terms of sales. This makes it a cherished piece of gaming history for many Xbox players, and the same goes for their favorite games from that era. It’s no surprise then, that the return of this classic game has sparked enthusiasm among Xbox enthusiasts.
The game under discussion is “Singularity,” a 2010 video game that was developed by Raven Software and published by Activision. Notably, Raven Software, an Activision studio, is currently responsible for “Call of Duty: Warzone,” while Activision has since been acquired by Xbox, adding intrigue to this scenario.
As a devoted fan, I must admit that while the game isn’t fully re-emerged yet, there’s a hint of its return. At the moment, only a PC version is available on the Xbox store, which isn’t groundbreaking considering it’s already on Steam. The listing is fresh and exciting, but not exactly earth-shattering news. However, this new development seems to indicate that there are more plans for the game in the pipeline, with one of those plans potentially being a return to Xbox consoles through backward compatibility. Although it hasn’t been officially confirmed, the lack of clarity on why this wouldn’t be the intention fuels my hope.
It seems quite unexpected to simply re-release the PC edition of the game on the Microsoft Store without any additional efforts, given the fan response we anticipate. After all, this release won’t likely result in significant sales or profits for Microsoft, as the PC version is already available on Steam and has been for some time.
It seems highly likely that Singularity will return on Xbox consoles through Xbox 360 backward compatibility, hinting at a broader effort to resurface games from the Activision archive that have become obscure over time. However, it’s all conjecture at this point.
For individuals who haven’t played it before, let me tell you about Singularity – it was a solitary game that garnered a Metacritic score of 76 upon release. Unfortunately, its commercial performance wasn’t strong enough for a sequel to be produced, and it seems unlikely one will ever materialize. However, due to its cult-classic status, there might still be hope for its return through the backward compatibility program, although that program has slowed down in recent times.
