> Mobile is the largest segment in gaming, with nearly 95% of all players globally enjoying games on mobile. Through great teams and great technology, Microsoft and Activision Blizzard will empower players to enjoy the most-immersive franchises, like “Halo” and “Warcraft,” virtually anywhere they want.

So long for immersive PC and console games.



There's still plenty of money in PC and console games, especially AAA ones. It's a good thing that games expand to mobile. My little cousins in India have no consoles or PCs to play on, but they happily play PUBG or Minecraft with their friends on their parents' phones. Of course, for every wholesome mobile game, there's a 100 slot machine games with no merit.


That's probably a reference to Xbox Cloud Gaming, though.


I agree. They worded that poorly, conflating mobile gaming and cloud gaming on mobile.


Most likely via xCloud, cooperations will always opt for subscriptions.
