To break it down, for those who are uninitiated, Xbox is a video gaming brand created by Microsoft. If you are someone who grew up in the era of consoles, highly immersive games, and accessories, you are already aware of the gaming brand's name.

For those who are not familiar with the gaming world, let us break it down gradually. Games are usually built for particular consoles. Meaning, specific games can be played on those specific consoles. For Microsoft gaming consoles, we have games like God of War, The Last of Us, etc.

For Xbox, we have games like Halo, Forza, and Gears of War, and then again for Nintendo we have games like Mario, Pokemon, and Zelda. Coming back to the buzz, players are wondering what the report will mean in the future for the gaming world.

However, it is important to note that more and more updates and buzz are pouring in, and nothing can be said for sure yet. Some fans are thinking analytically and talking about the pros and cons, while others are taking funny digs at it.

Some players are saying that this move will be good for a bigger gaming ecosystem, but in the signature internet chatter manner, others have differing opinions.

If you are also curious as to what the buzz is all about, here is the social media post for you:
