Phil Spencer would like to revive the MechAssault shooter franchise

Given how many different studios are part of Xbox Game Studios, Microsoft has the potential to revive any inactive franchise of these studios. This possibility has become especially relevant after the acquisition of Activision by Blizzard, which will be completed soon. Recently, Xbox director Phill Spencer mentioned that he would be happy to revive the MechAssault franchise.

Here's What We Know

He said this during an interview at Tokyo Game Show when asked which of Microsoft's inactive franchises he would like to revive:

"I always wanted us to go back and revisit MechAssault/MechWarrior space, I think there’s a lot we can do,” he said. “There’s so much about that whole franchise that in some way was ahead of its time, and it would be nice to get to go back and revisit.".

Of course, just the desire of the Xbox chairman is hardly enough and there is currently no information about the development of anything related to MechAssault, but who knows what will happen in the future.
