See I saw this but like, it almost feels like he's dodging the question? Or maybe I'm just getting blinded with excitement.

I don't Know him
That's why i don't want to believe him xD
First word was a flat "no" period unfortunately, so straight answer. Doesn't mean honest answer though
I mean yeah but look at the message as a whole. I don't think he's trying to flat out lie, just deflect. Maybe I'm wrong lol.

Jez Corden gave a hint again on his CuriousCat page. Could tell us something about their E3 conference or games in development.
- In an earlier answer, he said avatars are coming slightly before E3.
- In the question above someone asks if they're going to be doing any avatar integration. Jez Corden replies he knows avatars are going to be much more gamified than they have been in the past and then says to stay tuned for more on that in the future.
I believe he's referring to using your avatar as the main character in games and so on.
He also said Microsoft has a fondness for the ReCore IP but they want a developer that can make a sequel higher than AA and insinuated they are having trouble with that.

Guarantee avatar rewards for watching E3 based on this.
I imagine this kind of relates to the whole conversation before about companies often preferring to work on an IP they themselves created, rather than getting stuck with an unsuccessful IP with only one entry and the command "pls fix it. Make it better this time."
Not sure how anyone wouldn't want a Ryse 2 with the same production values as the first, that screams risk and creativity.
Sunset Overdrive and ReCore are salvageable in my eyes, the others no way. I don't see any potential in either of those games as the beginnings of something bigger.
Quantum Break was the remnant of an outdated vision, it 100% could have been something special without the TV stuff.
Quantum Break went through a lot of changes during development. The game originally had 4 playable characters!
Who would be developing it though? Crytek again or MS actually managed to get the rights? I'm all for it though, there's definitely potential for this franchise.
He straight out says "No".
Don't do this guys. It will only lead to disappointment.
Exactly. And besides he could have totally ignored the question if there were any plans. I believe Jez when he said Ryse is dead. Let's just accept it.
Mike has posted loads of pictures of other gaming related paraphernalia from the Xbox campus over the years. Ryse 2 isn't happening folks.
Also that's super interesting about Quantum Break, I didn't know any of that. They did the same thing with Wake, dropped the open world to go in another direction. Really hope we get a reveal of P7 at E3!

It seems like Microsoft has opened a position looking for engineers for future Xbox hardware and talk about GDR6 and future types of GDR. I can't find the direct link to the job offer but seems legit.

What happened to "The creators of Metroid Prime". Can they get that amazing talent to make it.
I think you're reading too much into this, to me it sounds like "I know nothing, except that they're fond of the IP", which is something that they've publicly stated a few times since the game came out.
All of them could be turned into successful franchises, there's no reason why they couldn't. I'd love to see sequels to all of them, plus some others (like Crimson Dragon, Powerstar Golf, and, yeah, D4).
The bonus Blu-ray that comes with the PC Collector's Edition of Quantum Break is full of interesting early and cut material, including the pilot episode of the live-action show (which was completely different from the one we've gotten in the end, featuring different characters that were featured in one of the early trailers), and this gameplay sequence:
hopefully MS reconsiders the Crimson Dragon RPG now that Panzer Dragoon has recently surged in popularity on Xbox again.
Btw Playtonic said they have more content coming up Yooka-Laylee and they have some other stuff to announce too, soon.
So who knows what this "other stuff" may be.
MS is the last company I would expect them to partner with, but if they had something multiplat it would come to Xbox too.
I thought they were positive on MS, at least from the quotes I read. I don't think Playtonic would be working on Conker or Banjo because Rare is quite capable of making it in house, Mayles, O'Connor, Beanland and Stevenson would be a great team to lead that sort of project. Seavor has done a lot of conker voice work, so I'm sure he would be up for a script or voice work.
EDIT: Yep they were the positive ones:
If your wondering, Phil and Shannon were ex-Microsoft studios EMEA, so they worked with Rare when they still had the handheld division and were working on Conker L&R, Kameo, PDZ, Viva and N&B's up until 2008. That seems to be why a lot of ex-Rare staff like him, even Kirkhope which is surprising.

A sequel wouldn't be the exact same game re skinned with better graphics. One would think they would improve most, if not all aspects of the game, including the issues you've noted above. A game doesn't have to be a masterpiece in order to deserve a sequel.
Goddamit why must these things be so hard!
Ok. I'll take the positive news, another hint that MS like ReCore and want to do more with it. I'll take that.
Man... I would love so much to see a big, awesome, spare-no-expense ReCore 2. It's probably the game that I want the most from MS. Even if I have to wait till next generation.
Um. You buried the lede. New avatar's launching in April?
EDIT: All three of those things are interesting. Where is this from?

Microsoft Corporate Partner website. Was also posted in the avatar thread.
I saw the avatar part on Reddit. Preview guy said: this is not real.That SoT part is intresting. So those 1 and 2 million players is not with Gamepass users added?
Because that would be mega.
