Rumor: Xbox to Publish AAA 3rd-Party Title Set in 'Ambitious Connected World' - News
by William D'Angelo , posted on 01 May 2021 / 2,320 ViewsMicrosoft's first-party lineup has grown significantly in the last few years with a total of 23 studios across Xbox Game Studios and Bethesda.
Xbox Global Publishing, which works with third-party developers, according to Windows Central's Jez Corden is set to publish a game for a "prominent third-party AAA studio." Corden, who is a known leaker, says the game is "set in what sounds like an ambitious connected world."
Corden says the game will be revealed this year or next year depending on how the development goes. He is also aware of "at least three additional games being prototyped by Xbox publishing partner studios of a high caliber."
This should be treated as a rumor until an official announcement is made.
Don't count out Xbox Global Publishing either. ?
