Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer has big plans for the future of Xbox. More games are coming to rival platforms and next-gen hardware is on the way.

Microsoft has been gradually moving Xbox away from the idea of a single piece of hardware in recent years, with ambitions to reach billions of gamers across consoles, PCs, and mobile devices. Now it’s officially bringing four Xbox-exclusive games to PS5 and Nintendo Switch amid an “Xbox Everywhere” effort inside Microsoft that will likely see even more games arriving on rival consoles.

Can you tell why that changed, and how does this overall impact how Microsoft tracks the success of Xbox internally? It doesn’t change how we’re tracking success. Revenue that we make on other platforms will be part of content and service revenue, as it is today. Minecraft on PlayStation counts as part of our content and service revenue today. In terms of why we shifted, I think it was important when we were kickstarting Game Pass that there was a discrete focus on trying something new.
