Xbox Head Says The Order: 1886 Won’t Be Remembered

March 17, 2015 by Jacob Saylor

Phil Spencer strikes.

Phil Spencer is the head of Microsoft's Xbox division and he's known for speaking his mind across platform lines. Today, he proved true to this reputation by throwing a bit of salt in the direction of Sony's latest exclusive, The Order: 1886.

First though, Spencer applauded Sony for "trying to do something new," and "not doing a sequel." He goes on, saying that Sony and Ready at Dawn have achieved some "really remarkable things."

Here's what Spencer had to say on The Order: 1886 and its controversy-ridden launch:

"[The Order: 1886 isn't going to be] the thing that people look back on and think that’s when the new-generation truly happened, when gaming became different.”

Spencer also went on to say that Sunset Overdrive didn't achieve what Microsoft wanted either, but that it was still a solid entry into the Xbox One game library.

Thanks, Paradiger.
