Microsoft's CEO Satya Nadella announced in his annual shareholders letter that the company is continuing full speed ahead with Project Latitude. Project Latitude is the Redmond-based company's initiative for bringing its first party Xbox games to competing platforms such as the PlayStation 5 and the Switch and its successor. There were rumours circulating online that the rollout had been paused, but it seems that is not the case.

"We are bringing great games to more people on more devices. With our acquisition of Activision Blizzard King, which closed October 2023, we've added hundreds of millions of players to our ecosystem. We now have 20 franchises that have generated over $1 billion in lifetime revenue—from Candy Crush, Diablo, and Halo, to Warcraft, Elder Scrolls, and Gears of War. And with Xbox cloud gaming, we continue to innovate to offer players more ways to experience the games they love—where, when, and how they want. Finally, we brought four of our fan-favorite titles to Nintendo Switch and Sony PlayStation for the first time, as we continue to extend our content to new platforms."
