From here, I’ll keep doing what’s always mattered so much to me: cheering on the teams pushing this industry forward and playing alongside this incredible community. I'll see you online.

Thank you to everyone who’s been part of this chapter. This community has meant more to me than I can say.
Thinking back to my start as an intern in 1988, I never could have imagined the path ahead. I’ve been lucky to work with so many passionate creators, partners, colleagues, and players across the industry; people who challenged me, taught me, and made this work full of joy and wonder.
I’m excited for @asha_shar as she steps into the CEO role. She’s joining an incredible group of people; teams full of talent, heart, and a deep commitment to the players they serve. Watching her lean in with curiosity and a real desire to strengthen the foundation we've built gives me confidence that our Xbox communities will be well supported in the years ahead.
It’s rare in life to know when a chapter is closing, but after 38 years at Microsoft, that moment has arrived for me. I’ve made the decision to retire and begin the next chapter of my life. It’s a milestone that’s given me a chance to reflect on the incredible journey I’ve been fortunate enough to share with so many of you.

I sat down with Johanna Faries to discuss all things Blizzard, Xbox, and BlizzCon celebrations, as part of February's 35-year celebration of Blizzard games!
This year marks 2 years at Blizzard with Johanna at the helm, and it's a big year to be steering the ship.
We chatted about how the studio is balancing its legendary past with a "bold" new future under the Microsoft umbrella.
(This is Windows Central, of course, so I had to lead my questions with the Xbox of it all) 👇

REVIEW: MIO: Memories in Orbit is one of the most beautiful video games I've played in years--and has one of the most rewarding maps I've explored.
A magnificent game (and a challenging one, which I get into, highlighting some key settings worth trying)

Super excited to be posting this. Having been a big fan of Planet of Lana it was great to talk to Planet of Lana 2 game directors Adam Stjärnljus and Klas Martin Eriksson about the sequel.
Check it out!
