It would appear that Microsoft is planning on doing more games and TV shows based on its Xbox IPs.
That's according to its games boss, Phil Spencer, who told Variety that the company is learning and growing in how to adapt its intellectual properties. This news comes ahead of the release of the long-in-development A Minecraft Movie but after two seasons of the critically shunned Halo TV show over on Paramount.
“We’re learning and growing through this process, which is giving us more confidence that we should do more,” Spencer said.
“We learned from doing Halo. We learned from doing Fallout. So all of these build on themselves. And obviously we’ll have a couple that miss. But what I’d say to the Xbox community that likes this work is, ‘You’re going to see more, because we’re gaining confidence and we’re learning through this.’”
The company saw huge success with its Fallout show over on Amazon Prime, which resulted in 17 Emmy nominations.
