Ok but we are taking about the ecosystem. Should we start saying “Xbox ecosystem” for everything on game pass, or the “Steam ecosystem” for games that work on PC and Steam Deck?
If I’m following the logic from the other guy, I think that it would be “Microsoft ecosystem”, not “XBox ecosystem”, since they’re removing the specific platform, and adding the company. Which I think works.
Kinda. On PC you still use the Xbox app and game pass has Xbox branding. It’s not just about OS, it’s about store sales.
My point is that technically everyone that bought it bought it on iOS. The figures are the same whether you look at iOS sales, MacOS sales or “Apple ecosystem” sales.
You buy the game on the AppStore for your account once and you can play it on any device. And the store itself lists the number of purchases, but not the platform of purchase.

So you mean to say you can play on all iOS devices?
Mac isn’t iOS.

Yes this is what I meant!
