What’s the New Studio Working On?
Unanswered Questions We Still Have After Microsoft’s E3 2018 Conference
Speaking of new studios, Phil Spencer also announced during the E3 2018 conference that they’ve formed a new developing studio called The Initiative. The studio is based in Santa Monica, and it’s being led by the former head of studio from Crystal Dynamics, Darrell Gallagher. They went on to state that they were currently in the process of expanding the team to recruit world-class talent. In addition to that, The Initiative would also focus on games with strong storytelling and world-building.
The new studio is already working on a new project for Microsoft, and the big question here is, what is it exactly? It’s exciting to see Microsoft taking steps to expand their development team and create new IPs, but at the moment, we’d really like to know more about the new stuff they’re coming up with, and this studio is at the center of that mystery.
