Last week, it was reported that the new Xbox One would not allow indie developers to self-publish games for the console.
Understandably, developers and gamers alike were very critical of the news but now it appears that Microsoft will include some kind of support for indie development.
"We're going to have an independent creator program," says Don Mattrick, Microsoft's head of interactive entertainment. "We're going to sponsor it. We're going to give people tools. We're going to give more information."
Of the program, itself, Mattrick said "We're going to have an independent creator program... There's no way we're going to build a box that doesn't support that."
