[Official] Microsoft has purchased Zenimax Media/Bethesda

[Check it out]

That's one way to make people preorder your system.

 

[NameUser]

Monumental news for Microsoft and Xbox, and congrats to both parties. Although I can't say I won't be majorly bummed out if this means no Bethesda stuff in other platforms :(

It won't. They kept Minecraft on Playstation. They won't make them exclusive.

Question is if we would have another Fallout by Obsidian

 

[Marmoka]

Holy shit!!

 

[Typhoon20]

Is this pro consumer or anti consumer? I can't keep up.

Click to shrink...

It's Xbox/MS so of course it's anti consumer. DUH.

 

[Damn Silly]

uh, holy fuck

 

[DeadJoshWalking]

I wonder what the feeling in Obsidian is right now, MS set them running building what looked a lot like their own Elder Scrolls and then went and bought Bethesda?!

 

[Aeroucn]

Holy shit that's big

 

[Friskykillface]

Trump caused this to happen by declining the Microsoft bid on tiktok 🤔

 

[Transistor]

I'm still saying "god damn"

 

[Phoenixazure]

well there's your Xbox first party now

 

[Sento]

Holy shit.

 

[eso76]

Holy shit.
I doubt it's a Mojang like thing where Minecraft keeps being released on anything, right ?
Huge

 

[Deleted member 76797]

I wonder is ESVI is a big enough title that they keep it multiplat. Skyrim mustve sold 10s of millions over the years.

 

[Richter1887]

Fuck.

This means no Doom on PS5 anymore and that sucks ass.

 

[0ptimusPayne]

Do y'all really think they'll make their stuff exclusive?

No way. Mark my words--they'll keep making Playstation games. They brought Ori to the Switch and make their games for PC now. They didn't pull Minecraft. This is big, but nothing earth shattering.

Click to shrink...

Nobody but fanboys care if they'll be exclusive games. People with Gamepass care a whole lot my friend...

 

[Arc]

Holy fuck

My exact feelings after seeing this. Sony's power plays seem so inconsequential next to something like this.

 

[Deleted member 15973]

Congratulations to xbox fans.

 

[Jeffram]

MS might as well go 3rd party at this point and sell their gaming subscription as buffet on their own platforms as well as a le cart on Playstation

 

[Urishizu]

The Evil Within getting a callout in the graphic! There is hope for #3!!!

 

[The_R3medy]

Holy. Fuck. This is absolutely massive.

 

[Supoman]

Wow this is big :O

 

[Camwi]

Holy fucking shit!

 

[Dust]

HOLLLYYY FUUCK

 

[BelieveMeUstink]

Well Damn

 

[Quad Lasers]

God damn, so Microsoft has Avowed, Elders Scroll, Outer Worlds and Fallout.

FORCE MIKAMI TO MAKE A NEW BEAT EM UP.

 

[SCUMMbag]

Holy shit

 

[Deleted member 20297]

Is this the biggest acquisition yet both in games and importance? Holy moly...

 

[Asbsand]

All I want to know is what this means for Switch going forward.

 

[Ashler]

I literally spat out my coffee!!!! WHAT?

These 10 minutes have been of PURE SHOCK honestly, holy shit

 

[wbloop]

HOLY FLYING FUCK. I'm speechless right now

 

[Maverick-Swe]

Holy fucking shit

 

[J-Skee]

Hahahaha & here I was saying it was trash that Sony locked up those two Bethesda games as console exclusives.

 

[Raigor]

FALLOUT BY OBSIDIAN IS HAPPENING

FINALLY

 

[Indy in the Fridge]

 

[TsuWave]

This is nuts

 

[Paper Wario]

Is this pro consumer or anti consumer? I can't keep up.

Click to shrink...

Allow me to quote myself lol

The resetera whiplash of studio acquisitions going from being a bad thing to a good thing is really something else

Click to shrink...

 

[Reizzz]

I think this is not the end of acquisition news ...

Click to shrink...

Honestly that EA game pass thing could just be the beginning of the EA Microsoft news too

 

[Philippo]

Woooow.

Holy shit.

I don't even particularily care but this must be the biggest acquisition in the whole industry ever right?

Fucking Todd must be laughing like a maniac right now.

 

[Strittles]

I can't fucking believe this is what Phil had in his back pocket before pre-orders open

the mad man

 

[Cocksman]

That is huge. Wow.

What are hey even supposed to do?

Click to shrink...

No idea. If they want an arms race? Maybe Remedy?

 

[yumms]

Well that puts a doubt in my potential PS5 purchase.
