Xbox to Merge Playground Games and Turn 10 Studios
Language: EN | RU
Playground Games, the studio currently completing development of the new Fable, will merge with Turn 10. The announcement was made on September 22 by Matt Booty, Microsoft's chief content officer.
"Playground and Turn 10 will come together as one studio focused on the Forza and Fable franchises. These two studios have been creative and franchise partners for over a decade, and today’s changes will formally move their work into one team," reads his letter published on the official Xbox website.
The decision is part of a major restructuring of Xbox's gaming business. The changes also affect Activision, Bethesda and Halo Studios.
Booty will meet with representatives of the studios over the following week. Then, on October 6, the Xbox team will come together to discuss their progress and the future of the company's game franchises.
Playground Games was founded in 2010 and has been owned by Microsoft since 2018. The studio is best known for developing the Forza Horizon series and has also spent much of the past decade working on the Fable reboot.
