Microsoft Offers Hollywood's Big Players Gaming IP Bundle
Microsoft is reportedly seeking to sell a package of over a dozen popular gaming IPs to Hollywood for adaptation. The estimated value of this package is more than $300 million.
The alleged bundle includes World of Warcraft, Halo, The Elder Scrolls, and Diablo among others. It's unclear whether Microsoft has specific ideas for adaptations or simply wants to explore the potential for movies, series, or other future projects.
Puck reports that Microsoft is in talks with several potential partners, including Paramount, Universal Pictures, and Netflix. The company aims to reach an agreement with only one of these parties to avoid breaking up the IP package into separate components.
