During the latest episode of The Official Xbox Podcast, Spencer declared that there hasn’t been any change in the company’s commitment to producing Xbox exclusives. However, he anticipated a reduction in the number of console exclusives throughout the industry in the coming decade.
Following Microsoft’s Activision Blizzard acquisition, Microsoft’s gaming business grew noticeably and the company is looking at the opportunity for Xbox to evolve “to ensure long-term success for both Xbox and the industry as a whole,” including placing its games on competing platforms like PlayStation and Nintendo Switch.
“We make every decision with the long-term health of Xbox in mind, which means a growing platform, our games performing, building the best platform for creators, reaching as many players as we can,” Spencer said to The Verge.
