Gaming News Xbox: Heading For New Disney Games From Bethesda?

While Bethesda is currently working on an Indiana Jones game with Lucasfilm Games, some pretty big new rumors would tell us that the studio is working on other projects licensed from Disney. Esports commentator Joey McDermott talks about it today.

Besides Indiana Jones, any other Disney licenses in the tubes of Xbox and Bethesda?

The announcement was surprising to say the least We learned in early 2021 that MachineGames, the studio behind recent Wolfenstein works, was seriously working on an Indiana Jones-branded title. Since then, aside from a teaser and a few indiscretions from Todd Howard here and there, we haven’t had much to eat. This game was developed in partnership with Lucasfilm Games (formerly Lucasarts), a subsidiary of Disney since the big-eared company, we recall, acquired Lucasfilm. But on the edge of this still very discrete software, We learn today that other Disney licenses could end up in video games on the Xbox side. The rumor comes to us from knowledgeable esports commentator Joey McDermott.

The agreements between Disney and ZeniMax (parent company of Bethesda and MachineGames) were made prior to the company’s acquisition by Microsoft. So did Microsoft get its hands on its agreements? Joey McDermott tells us we don’t care anyway and that there are already several titles in the pipeline.

However, according to him, this information is quite concrete and comes from several sources. To name just one, he takes the example of a source that leaked Microsoft’s announcement of the “Welcome to the Xbox Family” event to welcome ZeniMax and its studios. According to him, a well-informed source who was a month ahead of everyone at the time.

Nothing is official at the moment, we’ll stick to the status of the rumours. However, with Indiana Jones at the forefront, such a collaboration could very well exist. It remains to be seen which licenses would be affected and whether they come directly from the original Disney catalog or from other acquisitions, such as Marvel. It’s possible that Bethesda and Microsoft have some revelations in store for us at their next conference on June 12 as part of Summer Game Fest. Then be patient before you know more.
