Indie developer pulls game from Xbox in support of pro-Palestine boycott


Tenderfoot Tactics has been pulled from sale on Xbox to support a growing Palestinian-lead boycott of Microsoft.

The developer behind acclaimed indie role-player Tenderfoot Tactics has removed the game from sale on Xbox, and said the decision was made to support a growing Palestinian-lead boycott of Microsoft. In Microsoft's case, the BDS Movement states that the maker of Windows and Xbox has provided Azure cloud and AI services "central to accelerating Israel's genocide of 2.3 million Palestinians in the illegally occupied Gaza Strip". AP reported earlier this month that Microsoft had swiftly fired two employees who interrupted a presentation on AI held during the company's 50th anniversary celebration to protest links to Israel.
