Microsoft’s gaming division is creating prototypes for a handheld gaming machine that will not launch for “just a few years,” gaming chief Phil Spencer mentioned Wednesday. In an interview with Bloomberg, Spencer mentioned that whereas Microsoft is actively engaged on prototypes, the corporate will first give attention to enhancing its Xbox app efficiency on present moveable units and establishing {hardware} partnerships.
The gaming unit needs to be “knowledgeable by studying and what’s occurring now” earlier than introducing its personal machine, Spencer mentioned. “Long term, I like us constructing units,” Spencer mentioned, including that Microsoft’s crew “might do some actual revolutionary work.”
