Microsoft forms Xbox Labs, a small team exploring AI-era game ports, decompiling and remixes

Xbox CEO Asha Sharma announced Xbox Labs in a memo to employees: a "small group of game makers, engineers and scientists" led by Xbox CTO Scott Van Vliet. It will explore ideas like decompiled and recompiled games, PC games translated to run on Apple Silicon or in a browser, and player remixes, and the memo says the team will build in the open. No tools or dates announced.
How you’d use it: If you mod or port games, watch what Xbox Labs publishes before building on it.
