Is that true? The game I developed for Steam Deck is actually the Windows application (it runs under Proton on Steam Deck).

I suspect most developers are also doing this. No harm to Windows there.

Maybe it's the Xbox getting left behind?



It's the Xbox. They've been on a huge campaign for exclusives for a while now.


Windows has been a decent development platform for Linux via Proton. ;)

Maybe they are just worried about the long game of Proton eventually eroding MS's share? But this looks more like propping up Xbox and Gamepass than Windows losing share (at least short term).
