Xbox handling Calico reviews after game review-bombed with hate speech

Magical community sim game Calico is now available with Xbox Games with Gold, but the LGBTQ+ friendly game, which champions ideas of kindness, has sadly been review-bombed on Xbox"by some pretty hateful bigoted people."

It seems the Xbox team is now on the case and is looking at the reviews for Calico after its creators reported that some were using reviews as an option for"hate speech" and"bigotry."that developer Peachy Keen Games aims to create"safe, fun, and relaxing video games," which is very much the case with community sim Calico, in which you're welcomed into a kind, LGBTQ+ friendly community which thrives on themes of love and friendship.

The Calico team has since confirmed that"Xbox is handling the reviews that include hate speech and targeted harassment," adding,"We have no problem with negative reviews, we always have things to improve! But anyone who saw the state of them yesterday will agree the ones including hate speech and slurs were very much not okay... Reviews are so valuable to both devs and players.

To be fair they should review the entire review system. Giving a game 1 star because you can't get it to start or following the status quo should get you a warning
