With Indiana Jones potentially being the next big Xbox-developed game to launch on other console platforms, fans have begun questioning Xbox's leadership - and the decisions that Phil & co. are taking right now. Major Nelson has responded to one of these questions on Twitter, simply stating that Phil is "running a business" for Microsoft, that's all.
It's a short and snappy defense from Major, but one that does remind us of Phil's job these days. From the outside at least, it seems like the Xbox leader's move to becoming a 'Microsoft Gaming' bigwig has led to a less public-facing leadership team - and one that has to make tough calls about the future of the Xbox division.
Whether Phil is actually responsible for some of these tough calls — including the team's pivot towards multiplatform releases — we're not so sure, but the Xbox boss has always been open about pushing for a more platform agnostic industry. The team's upcoming Indiana Jones game hasn't been confirmed for PS5 yet, but there's a chance we could hear about it and/or other future third party plans at Gamescom this week.
