Xbox-chef Phil Spencer har ikke lagt skjul på, at en af de centrale grunde til at de har købt Activision Blizzard er at stå stærkere på det mobile marked fremadrettet, eftersom de, særligt igennem King, har en solid tilstedeværelse der.
Men det betyder altså ikke at vi kommer til at samtlige store Xbox-franchises få en mobil ækvivalent. Phil Spencer talte lidt om det her via det seneste Xbox Podcast, og sagde dette:
"I want to go learn from those teams because I think it's critical for us to deliver on the full promise of over two billion people playing, the opportunity to reach more of three billion people playing video games, to reach more and more people, that people who only play on their phone find Xbox to be something that's interesting for them. It doesn't mean I want to turn all of our franchises into mobile franchises. It doesn't mean everything's going to go free-to-play. I think the distribution and business model diversity that we have is a strength of the platform. People who want to buy games, I love that. People want to subscribe to their games, it's great.
Men noget kunne tyde på at vi kommer til at se flere mobile udgaver af klassiske franchises. Hvordan skal de håndtere det, synes du?
