“No, we didn’t leave Xbox players, Microsoft left YOU”
It’s been nearly a year since Postal 4: No Regrets was launched on the PS4 and PS5, but we’ve heard nothing definitive about an Xbox version – presumably because Microsoft doesn’t want it on the platform.
We’ve heard this before, but it’s come up again this week as a result of a reaction from the game’s developer company (Running With Scissors) in response to an Xbox fan’s criticism of the game’s lack of an Xbox version:
No, we didn't leave Xbox players, Microsoft left YOU by not accepting our games in their platform.

We've tried and we've mentioned this many times. The ball is on Microsoft's court right now, not ours. https://t.co/fE5XWFudWQ
The team went on to say that Postal 4 isn’t on Xbox because it “doesn’t suit their collection.”
Obviously, some dissatisfied Postal 4: No Regrets fans are now tagging Xbox chief Phil Spencer on Twitter in the hopes of resolving the matter, but given that Postal has never appeared on any Xbox console, a release for Postal 4: No Regrets seems quite doubtful at this point.
Unfortunately, this game has a very low Metacritic score, with an average of 15 for PS5 based on 4 reviews and a 30 for PC based on 18 reviews, but it fared considerably better on Steam, where it has a “Mostly Positive” rating. Even if the critics didn’t like it, the game has a lot of fans who want to see it on Xbox later.
“POSTAL 4: No Regerts is a satirical and outrageous comedic open world first person shooter and the long-awaited true sequel to what’s been fondly dubbed as “The Worst Game Ever™”, POSTAL 2!”
