Microsoft in the last couple of years has acquired a number of development studios. However, they have also formed a new studio called The Initiative.

It is not known what the studio is working on, however,  the Design Director at The Initiative Drew Murray via Twitter said the team is developing a "crazy ambitious game." The tweet also links to open jobs at the studio. The Initiative is looking to hire people with knowledge in art, design, engineering and more.


A life-long and avid gamer, William D'Angelo was first introduced to VGChartz in 2007. After years of supporting the site, he was brought on in 2010 as a junior analyst, working his way up to lead analyst in 2012. He has expanded his involvement in the gaming community by producing content on his own YouTube channel and Twitch channel dedicated to gaming Let's Plays and tutorials.

I find it remarkable how MS very often either aims too high or too low.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeer that doesn't tell me anything at all. The studio doesn't have pedigree yet, so we have no idea what they mean by crazy ambitious game. Will wait for at least a teaser before agreeing they are indeed making one.

Yeah. Believe it when I'l see it. Sea of Thieves was hyped like this as well and turned out to be a pile of mediocrity.
