Recently, there has been a large amount of controversy regarding some recent news from Phil Spencer and the future of Xbox and Microsoft in terms of its first-party games becoming multi-platform.
So far, this news has been taken rather negatively by the Xbox community, and there are multiple reasons why. However, there are some who believe this could be a major push forward in the gaming industry. Luckily for some gamers, Phil Spencer has issued a recent tweet, putting some minds at ease.
Phil Spencer Recently Tweeted to Say That Microsoft Is Listening to Gamers Concerns Regarding the Xbox
The main aim of this recent tweet from Phil Spencer was to focus on making the gaming community aware that Microsoft is listening to their worries. It was also to say a business update event is planned for next week, which will provide gamers with a more in-depth look at the future of the Xbox.
At the moment, this business update event is direly needed, as gamers around the world are very worried about the future of Microsoft and its decision to make many of Xbox’s first-party games multi-platform.
Most gamers are more worried that if Microsoft follows through with this decision, then there is a possibility that it will leave the console scene and focus more on developing games, essentially allowing PlayStation to have a monopoly on the console scene.
Gamers Feel They Have Been Betrayed by This Decision From Microsoft
After the initial report that Microsoft was going to bring many of its Xbox first-party games to other platforms, there was an unfortunate reaction from the gaming community. Because of this, many gamers feel that their lifelong dedication to the console has been betrayed, as now Microsoft is essentially abandoning it to attempt a new venture.
What makes this even more interesting is the fact that Xbox gamers aren’t the only ones who are disappointed with this decision. PlayStation owners also disagree with Xbox’s first-party games being brought over to other consoles, as this would eliminate the competition between them, which is what leads to better quality content in games and fairer prices.
Many gamers feel that if Microsoft leaves the console scene and focuses on releasing games on all platforms, this will lead PlayStation to take control of the console market. This would put Sony into a position where it will be able to control the prices of consoles and games to the point where it has too much power.
If this business update event does take place, it will need to explain some of the major issues that gamers are concerned about, while also providing some clarity about the future of the Xbox console.
