Xbox gaming CEO Phil Spencer has confirmed that the Xbox community and all fans can expect more TV shows and movies based on different games. With successful hits like The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Sonic the Hedgehog trilogy, the statement looks more promising than ever.
In a recent interview ahead of the Minecraft Movie, Phil Spencer made it clear that Xbox is fully committed to bringing the most beloved games to the big screen. He further stated that Xbox is learning from its past experiences and gaining confidence as it progresses.
Spencer said, “We learned from doing Halo. We learned from doing Fallout. So, all of these build on themselves. Obviously, we’ll have a couple that miss.”
While Halo was canceled after two big-budget seasons, Fallout did a pretty good job entertaining its audience. However, it failed to attract the hardcore fans who knew the lore and had been playing the game for a long time. Spencer acknowledges that not every adaptation might be a big hit but reassures fans that Xbox will refine its approach to adapting video games.
