During the latest episode of The Official Xbox Podcast, Phil Spencer said that there has been no change in the company’s commitment to producing Xbox exclusives. However, he anticipated a reduction in the number of console exclusives in the industry over the next decade.
Following Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Microsoft’s gaming business has grown significantly and the company sees the opportunity for Xbox to evolve “to ensure long-term success for both Xbox and the industry as a whole,” including placing its games on competing platforms like PlayStation and Nintendo Switch.
“We make every decision with the long-term health of Xbox in mind, which means a growing platform, our games that perform, building the best platform for creators, reaching as many players as we can “, Spencer told The Verge.
