Pinball FX2 coming to the Xbox One soon!

Just revealed over on Eurogamer.net is the release date for Pinball fx2 on the Xbox One, the most realistic Pinball game you’ve played on the Xbox 360. Set to drop on your machine come the 31^st of July you’ll be able to play nearly all the back-catalogue of tables that have been released for the Xbox 360 in the past. However there is a big thorn in the side for all you Wizards out there craving some virtual ball bearing action; you will not be able to port across you’re previously bought tables from the Xbox360!

This will seem a tad unfair as the Playstation version (Zen Pinball) did offer this feature, so Community Manager BarbieBoBomb (on the official forums said).

“We know this is very important to fans of the Xbox 360 version, but we are very sorry to say that this was not an option made available to us on Xbox One. We always do our best to take advantage of any platform’s features whenever possible, and if a feature like cross-platform entitlement is an option for us, we will make it an option for our players. Unfortunately in this case, it was not.”

Reading further into the forums it looks like attempts are made to bring the your past purchases across and it may happen, but at this time you will have to fork out all over again for your favourite tables.
