Over the past few years, there have been scattered hints Microsoft would like to bring their Xbox Game Pass service to rival consoles like the PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. Talk about this heated up in a major way recently, when Xbox CFO Tim Stuart said they want to get Game Pass on “every screen that will play games,” including PlayStation and Nintendo consoles. Juicy! But perhaps we need to slow down a little. In an interview with Windows Central posted today, Xbox boss Phil Spencer poured some cold water on the notion of Game Pass on Sony or Nintendo […]

Microsoft has once again reiterated that the acquisition of Activision-Blizzard-King was mostly about securing a foothold in the mobile market. The highly-debuted megadeal between Microsoft and Activision-Blizzard-King was finally completed last month. After having announced the merger in January of 2022, the deal became a rather long journey with plenty of discussions, regulator blockings, court hearings, and whatnot.
