    But they released on Windows?

    They’ve also released on PS5, and Sony has an official non-position position, so I guess they’re not a BDS target: https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/News/Press/202310/23-030E/

      Sure, but the store takes a financial cut, not the OS. Selling on steam doesn’t directly support Microsoft.

        I imagine they would be testing their windows version on official windows OS/hardware at least once, giving money to Microsoft

          You’re right, they aren’t perfectly pure, so they may as well do absolutely nothing instead. That makes perfect sense.
