During an internal meeting at Xbox on February 6th, in a move that contradicts what Phil Spencer told employees about not discontinuing Xbox, an additional report by journalist Shannon Liao reveals that Sarah Bond, Head of Xbox, disclosed a new strategy to expand their games to every platform, using the slogan “Every screen is an Xbox.”
The report discusses Bond’s discussions about Xbox’s existing strategies across various devices and their ambitious aim for Microsoft to become the leading Cross Platform gaming company. To illustrate this, Bond showcased an image of the game Palworld, running on a tablet, a TV screen, a monitor, and a portable device. Employees were taken aback and amused by the possibilities of having a portable Xbox gaming device.
While we can only speculate on the authenticity of this information, the truth will be revealed on the upcoming Official Xbox Podcast special episode. It is scheduled for February 16th at 3:00 PM, following Thai local time.
