Microsoft’s Xbox Division May be Purchased by Amazon According to Insider
Insider Pete Dodd has a pretty good track record with his sources, and today he dropped something quite interesting. According to him Microsoft may be in talks with Amazon to transfer the Xbox One division to the online retailer.
'Two things. Titanfall launch show with @geoffkeighley. Have you announced that yet? Also, xbox bought by Amazon? Bookmark this.'
'The latter isn’t even close to done. If it gets finished at all. But, that’s the scuttlebutt. Do with it what you may.'
'It’s reality. Has been since before the xbox one launch show.'
'The show that is. Microsoft is looking to dump xbox. Am'azon is looking for gaming assets. Talks have started.'
The Titanfall launch show with Geoff Keighley is definitely believable, considering he’s working on a Final Hours feature on the game. The purchase of the Xbox division by Amazon is something I’d take with a sizable pinch of salt. It’s true that there have been insistent rumors lately on a possible spin-off of the Xbox One division, but it definitely generates profits at the moment. Michael Pachter defined the possibility “dumb and dumber.” We’ll have to wait and see who will be proven right.
The PS5 Exists.
