• What ? The Xbox Business Update which will discuss the future of the Xbox brand.

What will become of the Xbox brand?

The Xbox brand seems to be at a crossroads and, in recent weeks, there have been many rumors of several possible strategies for Microsoft. There is no need to worry about the multinational withdrawing from the market. It has just completed the largest transaction in history (the acquisition of Activision Blizzard). The Xbox brand is therefore not going to die.

But Xbox could become a fully-fledged multiplatform publisher, feeding everyone (including PlayStation consoles). Which would mean: the end of exclusives (or part of them). Titles like Hi-Fi Rush, Sea of ​​Thieves, Starfield or Indiana Jones and the Ancient Circle are candidates to take the plunge.

The main idea for Microsoft would be to make all screens a means of accessing the Xbox ecosystem – according to indiscretions signed Reverse. In parallel, we would continue to see real Xbox consoles land on the shelves, as is the case today. We recall that leaks from official documents showed an Xbox Series X with a cylindrical design.
