Om du hängt med någorlunda de senaste åren så vet du förmodligen att Microsoft nästan gjort det till sitt livsmål att köpa upp alla spelstudios de kan. Ninja Theory, Playground Games, Obsidian Entertainment och Double Fine är bara några av de studios som Microsoft öppnat upp den enorma pengapungen för och nu har Xbox överhuvud Phil Spencer i en intervju med GamesIndustry berättat att han inte ser något slut på Microsofts uppköpande av studios. Phil berättar:

"We acquired quite a few new studios in a short amount of time, and we want to make sure that those studios are on-boarded in the right way. As [Xbox Game Studios head] Matt [Booty] and I were talking about it, we just wanted to make sure that we treated the incoming studios as full parts of the organization. That they felt supported.

The Game Pass portfolio and subscriber base continues to grow. We're launching a new console. Last year was our biggest year ever on PC in terms of revenue as Xbox Game Studios. A lot of the business is doing really well, so we're always in the market for new opportunities with studios.

The first priority was making sure the studios had the things that they needed to build the best versions of their games. That means extending some of the timelines, and giving them more budgets. We have really strong support from Satya Nadella, the CEO of Microsoft, and Amy Hood, the CFO. And there's been no signal at all that we should be slowing down, but just to go at a pace that is maintainable for us as a leadership team. We're always out there talking to people. But it has to be the right opportunity"

Det är med andra ord spännande tider för de miljontals ägare av krysslådor som existerar där ute, men vilka fler studios Microsoft planerar att köpa upp återstår att se.
