Speaking yesterday during the Official Xbox Podcast (embedded below), the head of Xbox at Microsoft, Phil Spencer, clarified the direction of the Xbox business in the face of confirming rumors of "four Xbox exclusives" coming to PS5 and Switch.
In an internal memo covered this morning by The Verge, Phil Spencer further explained, "We have a different vision for the future of gaming. A future where players have a unified experience across devices. [...] A future where every screen is an Xbox." Phil Spencer referred to Xbox as "our gaming platform and content business" when speaking to The Verge, which they note isn't them using the word "console" at all.
