Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer speaking with Variety stated Xbox has learned a lot from the Halo and Fallout TV series and told fans to expect more movies and TV shows based on Xbox IP.
"We’re learning and growing through this process, which is giving us more confidence that we should do more," said Spencer. "We learned from doing Halo. We learned from doing Fallout.
"So all of these build on themselves. And obviously we’ll have a couple that miss. But what I’d say to the Xbox community that likes this work is, 'You’re going to see more, because we’re gaining confidence and we’re learning through this.'"
Warner Bros. Pictures and Mojang are set to release the live-action movie based on the popular video game, Minecraft, called A Minecraft Movie on April 4.
