Stephen Elop to head Microsoft gaming division

Stephen Elop



Steve Elope somehow quickly forgot everything, after Microsoft acquired Nokia. For some time there were rumors that Elop would become the general director of Microsoft, but these rumors remained rumors: the head of the corporation was her veteran Satya Nadella .



Now the network has an official letter to the gaming division of Microsoft Julie Larson-Green, which it has distributed to all team members. The letter says that Julie leaves the gaming unit for Applications & Services (applications and services). And Elop is becoming the new head of Devices & Studios at Microsoft. By the way, not so long ago, he advocated the sale of the gaming department of a corporation, if not relevant. And this is a bit strange, because the department does not make mini-games , but super-popular game consoles and accessories, services and everything else that gamers need.

At present, this information has not yet been officially announced by Microsoft, but it is unlikely that something will change. It is likely that personnel changes will be made public after Nokia, the company's mobile division, is fully under the jurisdiction of Microsoft.
