MS Is Interested In Buying WB Games

[Rekkapryde]

Hope that don't happen

Minecraft still multiplat. Prob would want to recoup as quick as possible.

asking price is still

Looks like Take-two, EA and Activision have also expressed interest. If it happens, I hope a 3rd party publisher acquires them.

I wouldn't want either of them acquiring them but I'd prefer that then mortal kombat going exclusive.

But if that happens expect the mortal kombat model to resemble SF5


10 characters available at launch, the rest behind a paywall.

It's the studios not the ips, although you'd have to expect some kind of wiggle room with IPs, like maybe timed exclusive content or something.

Can you imagine anyone else doing mk?


Anyway it's a ton of top tier talent that automatically MS in the juggernaut realm of 1st party studios and games if they bite

My expectation if Microsoft wins the bidding war

Batman
Lord of the Rings
Harry Potter
Mortal Kombat

Multiplatform/Day 1 Game Pass

Any New IP developed by those teams will be exclusive to Xbox/PC

MK is the get from the whole deal. Rocksteady has done nothing besides one b side game outside of the Arkham series.

But AT&T smoking rocks if they want 4 billi for the studios.

If Rocksteady and the ppl who did Shadow of Mordor are included, then they can make bangers w/o licensed franchises like Batman and LoR.

Rocksteady making an original stealth survivor horror game???

CD Project Red, Obsidian (Fallout: New Vegas), Deepsilver (Wasteland 3), Studio MDHR (Cuphead), RARE, Undead Labs, Ninja Theory, Playground Games, The Initiative, and now WB.

Microsoft is loading up with titans on their team. Not to mention ALL GAMES made under the Microsoft umbrella is free with game pass. They also have cross-play with PC and Nintendo and they are in talks to include Steam compatibility. They are setting up to win the console wars.

‘They need to show and prove. Sony has a slew of first party developers who have made classics under Sony...Microsoft can’t say that.
