Can I use Java to do game programming for Xbox-one and self publish it?

Question

I am wondering whether i can use java to write games for xbox-one? Any ideas?

Thanks!

Answer 1

It was not possible for the Xbox 360, so i guess it will be the same for the Xbox One.

On this Wikipedia article about developing Indie Games, they say:

Create – Games are written in C# or Visual Basic .NET using the XNA Game Studio framework, allowing the developers to debug and test their game internally before release. The final code is compiled into a single binary package.

So the answer is that you can't develop games in Java for Xbox One.

Answer 2

It is possible. You can use something like IKVM.NET to run Java in the .NET VM. Or you can compile Java to machine code.

Answer 3

You from my knowledge, cannot. But, if you know java, C# is pretty similar, so learning it will be pretty easy.
