House House keeps Big Walk off Xbox over its support for the BDS boycott
Big Walk Is Skipping Xbox as Part of the Pro-Palestinian BDS Boycott
Australian indie developer House House confirmed that Big Walk has no Xbox version because it supports the aims of the pro-Palestinian BDS movement, which lists Microsoft as a priority boycott target. House House said it would like people to play the game on Xbox, but not until Microsoft or Xbox is removed from the BDS boycott list, and that it understands the disappointment this causes. Microsoft supplies the Israeli government and military with AI and cloud services, and BDS pressure reportedly led the company in September 2025 to cut off Israel's access to cloud tech used in mass surveillance of Palestinians. Big Walk, House House's follow-up to Untitled Goose Game, is a multiplayer adventure and one of the best-reviewed games of 2026.
