This article is about why Microsoft want to buy online sensation Minecraft. The valuation of the game is 1.2 million pounds and that is the fee that Microsoft have to pay to acquire the game. This article states that the 2 industries are already in talks and are close to agreeing a deal.
- Minecraft is valued at 1.2 million
- 2 companies close to agreeing a deal
- Major American company Bloomberg have made a previous bid.
What I believe that Microsoft are doing with this is that all xbox consoles will come with the minecraft already installed for the buyers. This will give them a edge over rivals playstation because this is one of the biggest game and will be on the xbox as minecraft are purchasing the rights. This could increase microsoft (Xbox's)market share as this is a very popular game and playstation users play this game and this may force them to join the other side.
