According to a new report, Microsoft and Activision are creating a new team inside Blizzard that will create “AA” games based on existing Blizzard properties. A report said this new team is staffed primarily with developers from the Candy Crush developer King.
The Windows Central report said it’s possible that some of the titles from the AA studio will be mobile games, which makes sense if it’s staffed primarily with King developers. It also tracks in part because Microsoft is reportedly planning to launch its own Xbox mobile store for iOS and Android soon. While some of the games might be made for mobile, it might not be all of them, the report said.
Sources told the site that Microsoft is looking to reduce costs and explore making games with smaller teams that exist within a larger organization.
