Microsoft acquires the parent company of Bethesda Softworks

In the past few hours, the official announcement has arrived: Microsoft products entered into an agreement for the acquisition of ZeniMax Media, parent company of Bethesda Softworks. The latter studio is one of the largest and most acclaimed private game developers and publishers in the world, and is an incredibly talented group of 2.300 people around the world who make up some of the most established creative studios in the industry, through the various teams responsible for franchises such as The Elder Scrolls, Fallout , Wolfenstein, DOOM, Dishonored, Prey, Quake, Starfield and many others.

Bethesda's games have always had a special place on Xbox and in the hearts of millions of players around the world: the US company has always gotten along well with Bethesda, thus creating a special relationship over the years. Just as they took the first bold steps to bring The Elder Scrolls franchise to the original Xbox, Bethesda was among the earliest supporters of Xbox Game Pass, bringing its games to new audiences on all devices and actively investing in new gaming technologies such as streaming games on in cloud: this is essentially due to the particular link between the two ..

Just like Microsoft, Bethesda passionately believes in building a wide range of creative experiences, exploring new game franchises, and telling stories in bold ways. It will be hugely interesting to see the developer's next titles arrive, hopefully, as exclusive Xbox and PC. All the work of the Redmond giant begins with the commitment to provide a wide range of fantastic games to discover and play on their consoles. Over the past few weeks, they've been thrilled to share more details on important elements of a plan they've been working on for years.
