## Resource

Satya Nadella’s latest comments about Xbox raise some serious questions about Microsoft’s gaming business. After reports that Microsoft has considered spinning Xbox into its own subsidiary, fast-tracking Fallout and Elder Scrolls, and resetting the business around sustainability, it feels like we may be watching a major turning point for Xbox.In this video, I break down what Nadella said, what the recent reports suggest, and why the Sony Interactive Entertainment restructuring from 2016 might be an interesting comparison point for where Xbox could go next.
