505 Games is celebrating a huge milestone today, as it’s our 15 th birthday! We want to take this opportunity to celebrate this achievement with the Xbox community and say a huge thank you to our amazing partners at Microsoft for their support over the years.
Sometimes it’s great to stop and take a moment to reflect on the good times, of which there have been many. It’s surreal to think that 505 Games started as a team of 3 back in 2006 and has now evolved into a team of 250 in 2021, publishing over 200 titles in the process! Many of which have made their way onto an Xbox console over the years.
Xbox has played such a significant part of our journey getting to 15 years. Since 2006, we’ve been publishing titles on Xbox 360, then on Xbox One, and now on Xbox Series X|S.
To mark this major milestone, we’re celebrating in several ways. Let us give you the rundown…
