Xbox Game Studios |OT9| How many games would a game studio make if a game studio could make games?

Is it the one made for chinese market?

2023 Xbox first party looking so good, 2 AOE games, Redfall, Forza Motorsport and Starfield, if all of those come out before September that would be great, now I just need Hellblade 2 to be confirmed for next year and maybe one more like Contraband and it will be Xbox’s best year in a long time.

Not to mention, Game Pass. It’s going to eat us alive.

Yes, Gamepass has been seriously amazing this month, so many games it’s ridiculous, and I didn’t even mention the 3rd party exclusives like Stalker 2 that they will have, next year will be what many of us thought 2022 was going to be and the start of a special generation for Xbox.

Starfield alone guarantees the year is one of the best imo. I don’t think they’ve had a first party game of that calibre ever.

Supposedly, ABK is still going as planned, so they’re confidence to acquire them.

Game Pass PC growing +159% YoY and the deal with Riot Games has not even entered into effect (was announced for this winter). That’s really positive.

I don’t play Riot games and have no interest in them whatsoever but that deal seems pretty insane

LoL Champions alone is absurd, i’d love to know how much it cost MS

Admittedly I am only skim reading the results, but it seems like these results are further proof why Microsoft is all in on Game Pass because that recurring revenue can allow you to ride out lean spells of content.

The funny thing is that they are all in on gaming, spending billions and stakeholders like: “How Azure is doing?”

I know. Its hilarious. It has been like that for a while though and it is because Azure has been the engine for growth for some time now, so if it does well, Microsoft does well.

Once ABK goes through and the Xbox division becomes

Hoping they get some of these on console at some point. MS should definitely try to get marketing rights on Project L when it drops too.
