Don't PC gaming companies have only one real outlet (Microsoft) to work with? Not to be confused with distribution channels such as Steam.



Are there still games that only come out on PC? I thought most big titles are released on Xbox and Playstation as well?


Not many. For example, Jagged Alliance 3 and the Total War series.

I'm a big fan of Zachtronics games (TIS-100, Shenzen I/O, etc) and they are also PC-only.


Positech Games (Democracy Series) are PC only.


Well I’m not sure I’d draw a meaningful difference between Xbox and PC in this context, but at best you’d then just have two channels: Sony and Microsoft (Xbox/PC) so it’s no different than Apple and Google.

But specifically for computer channels there’s effectively just one: Windows PC.
