Microsoft Gaming studios head Matt Booty says “overall portfolio strategy is unchanged” — with more than 40 games in production
In light of shifting industry trends, we are making some tough decisions. This includes discontinuing the development of Perfect Dark and Everwild, wrapping up several unannounced projects, and ultimately shutting down The Initiative studio. These moves, along with other changes within our teams, aim to realign priorities and maximize resources for future success. Please understand that every project and team involved has been a result of dedicated years of work, creativity, and dedication.
