Microsoft to Take Over Warner Bros Game

Microsoft expressed that interest in acquiring the games pision of AT&T's Warner Bros.

This pision includes studios like Rocksteady, NetherRealm, Monolith and others, as well as some classic gaming properties such as Mortal Kombat. AT&T was reportedly seeking a price somewhere between $2 billion and $4 billion, with Take Two Interactive, Electronic Arts and Activision all interested in making a bid.

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, or WB Games, is known for publishing the "Batman: Arkham" series, "Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor," many "Lego" and "Harry Potter" games, "Mortal Kombat," and "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt."

According to the reportes, AT&T planned to cut more than 3,400 technician and clerical jobs across the country and close stores over the next few weeks as the coronavirus pandemic shutdown has prompted consumers to shop online.

Noteworthy, Microsoft acquired several new game development studios over the last two years, including Double Fine Productions, Obsidian Entertainment, Playground Games, Ninja Theory and others as a part of growing Xbox Game Studios.

Microsoft announced a new update for Windows systems for desktop and laptop computers. Windows 10 May 2020 brings new features to users, including the integration of the Windows subsystem with Linux2, which will help developers better introduce new changes and improvements to computer operating systems.

Also, this update came with great improvements to the audio assistant “Cortana”, as it became possible to separate it from the task bar on the computer, and this assistant got additional search phrases that facilitate the user to search for news or see the weather.

According to eg24, this update also provided users with additional capabilities to rename devices on the virtual desktop, and also addressed some problems that were harassing users while trying to connect their computers with other devices via Bluetooth.

Noteworthy, Microsoft released Windows 2020 Update 20H1 and build 19041.207 to Windows Insiders .

According to Tech news, if you want the update early before testing is finished, you can join the Release Preview update track on your Windows 10 PC by heading to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Insider Program, enabling Insider builds on your system selecting “Just fixes, apps, and drivers.

You’ll receive early versions of Windows 10 updates and apps before they’re released to the wider public. Again, we don’t recommend this for most people.

Microsoft is also promising to update this kernel through Windows Update, and it will be open source so developers can create their own WSL kernel and contribute changes.

Windows 2020

Noteworthy, Microsoft announced ”Windows 10X” version during its fall Surface hardware event in early October. At that time, officials described Windows 10X as built for “dual-screen PCs.” Officials made no mention of 10X being available on any other type of device in early October.

Microsoft has designed its Surface devices. Because the Windows, Office and Surface teams all work together on building hardware and software experiences these days, the choice of wording isn’t coincidental. The unified Microsoft Search technology will be front and center on Windows 10X devices.

On other hand, Microsoft doesn’t even have a single line of code ready for Windows 10X. That makes this the perfect opportunity to give some feedback to Microsoft so they can implement it for the Surface Neo’s release next year, according to Tech news.
