Ooh Very Nice. I wonder what else is in store with this partnership...

Abriael3998d ago

My guess is "absolutely nothing" lol, but who knows, maybe FFXIV on the 720?

Doubt it though.

nbagnall3998d ago

Why not? It's slated for the ps4 and ffxi was on the 360 as well.

Godz Kastro3998d ago (Edited 3998d ago )

Has to be something... Why would MS help promote? Weird...

Abriael3998d ago

It's a PC game mainly, and Microsoft is pushing Windows 8 heavily in Japan.

A strong Japanese-made PC MMORPG will help them.

Godmars2903998d ago

Announcement for the game for the Xbox3: confirmed.

Just hope there's no dick move to make it a timed exclusion from the PS4.

Also, doesn't Sony still have stock in S/E?

hazardman3998d ago

Man I just hope MS gets some FF love next gen too.

Nevers3998d ago

I just hope FF gets some love... any love next gen.

Microsoft should have left them stay 3rd party

GamerRN3h ago

If they are let go, they can be whatever they want. They ARE 3rd party now... 🤦

Barlos1h ago

Yeah, they're also jobless.

Bethesda France was made up of roughly 15 people... they couldn't of being doing much

Bethesda France mainly did publishing and marketing within the region

blacktiger3h ago

that's a shame for you to say that, i'm sure Elite loves hearing what you just said.

Profchaos5h ago(Edited 5h ago)

Bethesda France focused on publishing and marketing in the region. And 15 people lost their jobs as part of the closure.

I wonder if this is part of Microsoft's strategy to abandoned physical media or possibly gamepass advertising makes their roles redundant you don't need to market a game as hard when the majority of players get the game as part of a sub which already promoted upcoming games

Tacoboto5h ago

It's France too, there's a high likelihood only 1-2 people on the team even had an Xbox.

Profchaos5h ago

Possibly guven all the leaks we know the Xbox brand is really struggling in the region.

Yi-Long2h ago

Well, if your consoles and games are barely found in any stores any more, of course you're gonna struggle finding consumers ...

XiNatsuDragnel4h ago

Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo

Profchaos2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

I think it would have been better for all parties really especially gamers

TheColbertinator3h ago

The recently purchased Activision French offices might take over all the licensing and marketing for Microsoft in France from now on.
