   @InfiniteHench Hard to imagine why anyone would think Xbox is being dissolved but then again, people have been constantly saying this every year since the OG Xbox launched with little to no substance behind their assertions/speculative predictions.

   Only thing that raised an eyebrow for me regarding any of these announcements was the ActiBlizz stuff coming to Game Pass as I’m an Ultimate subscriber but I’m not exactly hype for it. ActiBlizz is probably my least favourite publisher and I still believe the acquisition should have been killed stone dead.

     All the foot stomping over the #Xbox rumors turned out to be a total nothing burger yesterday. Here’s a 4-minute announcement, but TL;DW:

     - Four unnamed games coming to other consoles (older than a year, so no Starfield)
     - All Blizzard Activision games coming to GamePass starting with Diablo 4 in a little bit
     - Hint at new hardware by holidays 2024
     - aaand that’s it?

     Xbox is not dissolving as a platform. Pretty weak announcement IMO. #Microsoft
