Original TV Shows Landing on Xbox in Early 2014
Halo series could launch soon.
by Matt Clark DECEMBER 16, 2013

During an industry breakfast in Los Angeles, Microsoft's president of entertainment and digital, Nancy Tellem, said the planned original TV programming for the Xbox 360 and Xbox One will tentatively launch in early 2014. According to Variety, Tellem acknowledged the process to get the new shows on Xbox consoles has been "slower" than expected.


"We're hoping we will be able to put something up in the first quarter, at minimum second quarter," said Tellem.

Microsoft originally announced its plans for original TV programming during its Xbox One reveal earlier in the year. At the time, a Halo-inspired series from Steven Spielberg was in the works. Back in October a second show, focusing on real-life street soccer players, was also announced.

"We aren't Netflix, we aren't Amazon, we’re a different animal," said Tellem. "We're neither or we're a little like them. It all depends. [...] As we continue to do deals everyone’s going to get more comfortable."
