Microsoft Xbox is aiming for other acquisitions after Activision Blizzard and Bethesda

Activision Blizzard will not be Microsoft’s latest Xbox acquisition, with the Redmond giant announcing that it intends to continue “investing in new development studios ” and “content creators” to expand Xbox Game Studios.

In recent months, Microsoft is completing the necessary steps to complete the acquisition of Activision Blizzard, an investment worth 68.7 billion dollars that could materialize as early as August 2022 if the American FTC gives the green light.

However, apparently, the Redmond giant is already thinking about the next move to expand the Xbox Game Studios. In the documentation of the latest financial statement sent to the SEC (Securities and Exchange) of the United States, Microsoft talks about investments in new studios, therefore acquisitions, with the aim of expanding and diversifying the Xbox Game Pass offer.

We continue to invest in new development and content studios to expand our IP roadmap and leverage new content creators. These unique gaming experiences are the cornerstone of the Xbox Game Pass. ”

Matt Booty, head of Xbox Game Studios, said in an interview that Microsoft’s goal with large acquisitions is not to take away games from the competition by decreasing the value of their offering, but rather to increase the value of Xbox Game Pass. , the flagship service of the verdecrociato ecosystem.
