Indie Dev Tells Fans To Not Buy Game On Xbox Over Israel Boycott
"Please do not purchase Luck Be a Landlord on Xbox,"
"I will be making a $10,000 donation to The Palestine Children's Relief Fund to (hopefully) help offset the revenue the game has generated for Microsoft."
"I would love for everyone to give what they can to The Palestine Children's Relief Fund, whether they purchased the game on Xbox or not,"
"We hope that Microsoft will listen to the voices of their workers and customers and stop all business with the criminal Israeli military, which we have watched conduct an open genocide in Gaza over the last 18 months,"
Dan DiIorio, creator of Luck Be a Landlord, asked fans not to purchase the game's Xbox version and urged a boycott of Microsoft over the company’s support for Israel. DiIorio pledged a $10,000 donation to The Palestine Children's Relief Fund to help offset revenue Microsoft received from the Xbox release and encouraged others to donate. He also encouraged people with Game Pass subscriptions to cancel them. Luck Be a Landlord is a 2023 roguelike slot machine game that launched on PC and was ported to consoles earlier this year. Other indie developers have similarly protested Xbox and pulled titles in solidarity with the BDS campaign.
