Microsoft revealed that it had acquired two more studios: Obsidian Entertainment and inXile Entertainment. That brings the total numbers of studios they acquired this year to seven. Microsoft has a lot of confidence in these studios, with Matt Booty, Corporate Vice President of Microsoft Studios, even saying that these developers “have the collective creative power and operational excellence to deliver the next industry game changers.”
Rare, the developer behind pirate adventure Sea of Thieves, has introduced a dedicated dog park to its studio grounds for employees' good boys and girls.
Nice thing they did, but not actually gaming related, not sure why this article was approved. Also strange informing us what game Rare worked on, as if we don't know their legacy.
I went to look at new apartments and saw only dog parks, no kid parks. We're so screwed.
A new PlayStation Malaysia tour video shows what looks to be concept art for Bluepoint's next game.
Another shooter? Yawn. Thought the prevous concept looked more fantasy.
Looks like my dream of them remaking Metal Gear Solid is over, still cant wait to see what they are cooking up.
The new unit comprises over 500 developers representing the entire World of Warcraft development team.
I used to be anti-union, it kills productivity, investment and turns product mediocre. Their games suck anyways though so what was lost? Might as well get their people paid until they are dissolved.
I personally hope they acquire a couple more studios in 2019. This is the competitive Xbox that the industry has been wanting again for a while. Glad they are back to there roots. Which is games first.
I want some JP studios as well, as asian studios overall to truly compete right now. Xbox is american product to most easterners which most don't like.
Since we're putting requests in, since MS is championing cross-platform cross-platform, I would like them to also release all new games on the Sony platform ;-)
i hope they announce what each one is working on at e3. the door is wide open now that sony dropped out for next year.
I'm excited overall. This will keep Sony on it's toes! Will almost certainly get a good single-player xbox- pc title too.
