None of the studios MS bought brought any new game to Xbox, all of those were either already making 2nd party games or were 3rd party multiplat devs. Xbox was never a poor division, at most is was a poorly managed one, sure you can also say it wasn't a profitable one as well. |
Well ya, they are honouring the existing contracts. Grounded I think is the first game from their new studios. I can certainly argue Xbox never had the budget or full backing of MS as a whole. Poorly managed in the past you got that right though.
Point being you can’t just build studios when you have a lacking games narrative. It’s scrappy and competitive when the underdog does it. When the winner does it it’s just tightening their grip.
