Microsoft opening new London Xbox studio

4.5
The day after reports of Microsoft reducing its Vancouver-based development studio, the company has announced it will open up a new one in London. MCV speculates the studio will focus on first-party free-to-play and online casual experiences, based on job listings.

"EMEA is a key market for us and we continue to cultivate the best talent and focus on growing our business, with this role focused on the continued expansion of our Microsoft Studios business in the region," Microsoft said in a statement.

Microsoft's Xbox presence in the UK includes Lionhead Studios, Soho Productions and Rare.

Minecart Why do they need another studio?


so they can make more money -__-"


Eh, I guess that's a reasonable explanation.


It's the obvious explanation. If it involves making money... you know.


Dont know why they need one, But i guess more employees down there?


It could be so that they have places all around the world, or... they just want money. .-.


Yeah it's most likely money.

Yeah Microsoft has always been about money.


Every corporation is about money.


Yeah everyone wants money, dont you think MS Already has enough ! Geezz


Bill Gates has billions alone, I don't even think Microsoft has that much money.


The employees might not but boy Bill Gates has just billions to waste.
