Earlier this week, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Microsoft purchased ZeniMax Media in what is the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:largest acquisition in gaming history. This meant that the makers of Doom, Fallout, and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Elder Scrolls, now work for Microsoft.
But don’t worry: 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Phil promised 𒊎to be as hands-off as possible while everybody focuses on making great games. Considering 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:how the Obsidian purchase went and all the wild success they’ve been having, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:we’re inclined to believe him.
Microsoft has also said that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:they’re not done buying up o💛ther game makers. Rumors have been swirling for years that Microsoft and Sega have been shacking up, starting with 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Microsoꦑft hosting🍸 Sega executives back in 2018. Then, Microsoft secured the rights to release Ph♎antasy Star Online 2--an Asia-only game up until recently--in the West at E3 2019. Th🌟is brought the famed MMO to PC and Xbox just last month.
There was even 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a leaked ad for some hu♏ge announcement that was supposed to take place at E3 2020 if the COVID-19 pandemic hadn’t sh꧒ut everything down. Nothing ever came of it, but clearly, Microsoft and Sega are in the midst of a bud𒆙ding relationship.
So it s🌸eems natural to think that Microsoft might want to just outright purchase Sega. Sadly, Microsoft has announced that their relationship isn’t going to the next level.
A tweet from earlier this month detailed what Microsoft plans to do at this weekend's Tokyo Games Show, which like everything else is being broadcast online. On the docket is celebrating Japanese games and creators, updates to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:MS Flight Simulator for PC, and a Japanese Mi𝕴necraft community showcase. But a subsequent follow-up tweet gave notice that "there won’t be any new acquisition news at the show."
Sucks, but what’re you gonna do? Microsoft is trying to be good these days🗹, and a hostile takeover of Sega isn’t going to win them any fans in either North America or Japan. We can perhaps expect future collabs between these two gaming giants, but a m🉐erger seems off the table, at least for now.
