FromSoftware
If the recent revival of online play in the PlayStation 4 exclusive Bloodborne is any indication, titles made by From Software have worldwide appeal. With that in mind, they’re another great studio for Microsoft to establish a good relationship with for future titles. While there have been multiplatform releases for Dark Souls II and III on the Xbox One, a console exclusive title delving into a new universe would make for a sure-fire hit and draw in some of their most loyal fans in the process.
That all being said, with FromSoftware’s close ties with Sony’s Japan Studio working on Bloodborne, whether the developer would effectively jump-ship to Microsoft is up for debate. However, with Microsoft’s history as a multiplayer friendly console provider, it could make for an ideal place to test a new and improved multiplayer system, souls-like or otherwise, and revitalize the publisher’s online community past shooter fans. Plus, the partnership would surely help move Xbox One units over in Japan, which is a region the company has struggled to make an impression on for years now.
