Microsoft launches Xbox Wire news service

A new Xbox-centric news service has launched online by platform holder Microsoft.

Xbox Wire is described as a news blog to help you keep up with the latest Xbox news”. Of which there will be plenty come the next Xbox reveal on may 21st.

You will be able to follow our journey as we bring you the best in games and entertainment and along the way we’ll introduce you to the people, places and technology that bring it all to life,” Xbox Wire editor Lisa Gurry wrote.

You’ll see some familiar faces on Xbox Wire. Our executives will write blogs occasionally, but most of our blogs will be from everyday people on the Xbox team. Our own Major Nelson will appear as well.

I’m lucky to spend my time at work living and breathing all things entertainment and I’m excited to serve as your editor here at Xbox Wire.

We’re currently in beta mode, but expect to graduate by May 21st.”
