Head of the gaming division Microsoft Phil Spencer gave an extensive interview to Kotaku, during which he spoke about the company’s strategy for the next generation, new consoles coming out soon and the acquisition of ZeniMax Media. To a direct question about whether Microsoft can recoup the $ 7.5 billion invested in the holding without issuing The Elder Scrolls VI on Playstation 5, Spencer replied “Yes”…
However, he further gave more detailed comments on this score:
“This deal was not made to take games away from another user base. Nowhere in the documents we put together was how we could keep other users out of them. We want the games to be available to as many people as possible. but not the other way around.But if we talk about the business model – I just directly answer the question you asked me – when I think about what people will play these games on and the number of devices we have, and this is xCloud, PC, Game Pass and consoles, I see that I don’t have to release them on anything other than the platforms that we support in order for this deal to work for us. “
However, Microsoft is still not clear on whether there will be future Bethesda games other than Deathloop and Ghostwire: Tokyo, for which deals have already been closed, go to PlayStation 5.
At the same time, it has already been confirmed that all the following new products Bethesda, including Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VIwill appear immediately on Xbox Game Pass, and already released games will continue to replenish the service library.
With the addition of Bethesda Softworks to the existing family Xbox Game Studios, 23 internal studios are now working under the Microsoft hat… Regardless of the situation with releases on other platforms, it is clear that owners of Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S will be able to count on a steady influx of new games in the future.
