These days may be the last in which Activision Blizzard can be considered a third party, since the latest reports indicate that the purchase by Microsoft could be closed imminently, giving way to many of the IPs and licenses from this company would become the property of Xboxbeing that, beyond Call of Duty, this also involves Crash Bandicoot, Tony Hawk, Guitar Hero, among many others.
And under this same premise we must talk about the latter, since although at the time It was one of the most popular titles of the video game industry, various factors made it Guitar Hero was losing strength to the point of disappearing from stores and going into the background. However, from Windows Central we receive a report that would indicate that Guitar Hero could return.
Xbox technology would allow this iconic Activision saga to be brought back
According to this medium, the executive director of Activision, Bobby Kotick, would have held a meeting to discuss the purchase by Microsoft, giving way to him commenting during this same meeting that Xbox technology and research could bring Guitar Hero resurgence.
It should be noted that although this It is not an official confirmation that Guitar Hero will return, the truth is that Microsoft has expressed on several occasions that it wants to look for new ways to exploit Activision licenses, which in recent years has focused its efforts on the development of Call of Duty titles. Obviously we will have to see how this story progresses, since it cannot be ruled out that Phil Spencer has other licenses in mind. For example, the exclusive release of Crash Bandicoot on Xbox would be a serious moral blow.
Be that as it may, with the purchase about to be closed, it should be noted that it has already been revealed when Activision games would arrive on Xbox Game Pass, being that with all these additions the service could earn an immense amount of points with users.
