在近些年中,多款人氣IP都迎來了改編電視劇或是電影,包括《輻射》、《最後生還者》、《神秘海域》等。知名沙盒遊戲《我的世界》也在近期推出了真人大電影,雖然媒體口碑不佳,但全球總票房已突破5.5億美元,在電子遊戲改編電影榜單上排名第二,僅次於《超級馬里奧兄弟大電影》13億美元的票房。
Although Xbox is actively promoting live-action adaptations, its CEO Phil Spencer recently said in an interview with Variety magazine that video games do not rely on film or series adaptations, and the industry itself is already very successful.
Spencer also added that game adaptations should never be considered a must-do, and that each IP does not have to be a movie or TV series, as licensing adaptations may alter the integrity of those IPs. However, he is still a whip corpse, and we can expect more series or movies based on Xbox games in the future.
