Microsoft forces EpiXR to remove cheat codes from its games for easy achievements

From Real achievements report a rather controversial piece of news. And it is that Microsoft had to draw attention to the developer EpiXR for remove cheat codes which he distributed to users to unlock skills in their games to get 1000 achievement points quickly and easily.

Needless to say, this is against the terms and conditions of the Xbox Live game publishing service. It seems that this detail was overlooked by the creators of the Aery saga.

Distributing code like this violates the Xbox Live Publishing Rules.

These codes allowed, among other things, to quickly unlock all the levels or to skip them, to complete the game in a few seconds and others that made in less than 5 minutes the player had 1000 success points. This decision is quite shocking, perhaps it was an attempt to reach a wider audience hungry for achievement points. And it is that the studio games only last a few hours.

In statements to Trueachivements, a representative of the study confirmed the call for attention received by those in Redmond on this subject.

We had to remove the cheat code from all Xbox games because we are not supposed to have cheat codes like this in games. We received a complaint from the Xbox team about this and we are forced to update the games.

This means that these cheat codes will not be available in the future, because we don’t want to get in trouble.

However, EpiXR is not the only studio that has dedicated itself to distributing these codes, others like ChiliDog Interactive and others have also done so. So it remains to be seen if Team Xbox takes action against them as well.
