Microsoft reacts to Activision/Bungie deal

Microsoft has given its reaction to today's news that Activision has signed a ten-year exclusive publishing deal with Bungie.

A company spokesperson told CVG in a statement:

"Our partnership with Bungie as a first-party developer for Xbox 360 remains unchanged, and right now we're deeply engaged with them on the development of Halo Reach, which is poised to be the biggest game of 2010."

So there you have it. Single-mindedly concentrating on Reach. Bungie's last project before it releases new IP exclusively handled by Activision.

Nope, we still can't get our head round it either.

Earlier this year, Bungie refused to comment on whether its next project would be coming to PS3. Today's announcement suggests a multi-platform release.

Bungie was previously owned by Microsoft, but split with the company back in 2007 to become independent.
