Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard is the start of a whole new era for Xbox. We are only at the beginning of big changes in the video game industry, but we can already list all the licenses and games that Xbox now has to enrich its catalog!
Activision Blizzard: a new pool of iconic licenses for Xbox
We know Activision Blizzard for Call of Duty, Warcraft or Diablo, but the publisher actually has many more franchises than that since we have counted at least 40 licenses held by the group.
Many licenses have not seen new episodes for a long time, and some will probably never return, but it is clear that the catalog of titles does not have to be ashamed of the competition. We already know that Microsoft is going to give the studios a little breathing room and it is not impossible that old licenses will make a comeback under the Xbox banner.
In June 2023, Phil Spencer, boss of the brand, held the usual conference with a Hexen t-shirt, but denied that it was a teaser of anything. Rather a form of nostalgia for a license that he loves, according to him.
