This was recently the Xbox Gold game

https://www.gamefaqs.com/xboxone/229810-the-incredible-adventures-of-van-helsing-iii

But before, it said PC/Mac, there was no Xbox One entry. Is this something under the contribute file? If there was hypothetically a PS4 version, how would someone add it?

(I feel like people use the actual features of this site less than the message board, lol)

Contribute -> Release Data -> Create a New Game

It'll bring you here: https://www.gamefaqs.com/contribute/submit_data?edit=newprod

A few things to note:

- You should include some sort of commercial listing for it, ideally. Or an official site, or some authority that shows it's being sold, or a commercial listing on Amazon, etc. etc. I don't mess with Xbox but for Steam as an example you could link to it's page on the Steam store. It helps provide proof it exists, that's basically what they're looking for.

- If the game is a port of a game or otherwise is multiplatform you'll want that "Also On:" thing that the game lists other platforms for. (Like how Doki Doki Literature Club will link to the Mac and Linux versions from the PC version page on this site.) For that you'll just want to add a note in the vein of "this game should be crosslinked with" then the game IDs for those other versions' pages on the site. (When you visit the My Games/Home section of a game check the URL. There's a 6-digit number there, that's the game ID.) It's not wholly necessary to get the ID, just makes the admins' jobs easier.

- Similar deal if the game is a remaster or remake of another.

Sounds like a lot but I'm bad at explaining.

PMing ZoopSoul is best if there's any issues or confusion, he usually handles these submissions and he's more than open to PMs.

Cool! Thanks. I've added over 1000 games to my collection (well, including PS+/Gold/EA, not really "mine" lol) and it's only happened a few times. OCD rising. Looks like we have some other users minding to it
