Microsoft celebrates every LGBTQIA+ individual via Xbox with this beautiful event in Pride Month. The Corp wants to respect every LGBTQIA+ individual who works at Microsoft and has a good time with Xbox content and product.
As you know, Pride month has arrived and Microsoft has decided to make a gesture for LGBTQIA+ people. Like in many other areas, LGBTQIA+ awareness and sensitivity have started to gain an important place in the gaming world. It is a familiar thing that society and industries should be sensitive to human awareness. Xbox-specific content, games, and events are dedicated to LGBTGIA+ people starting this month. It seems like it will be valuable participation for many LGBTQIA+ individuals that it employs and addresses.
In addition to these, we would like to point out that Microsoft donated $150,000 to LGBTQIA+ non-governmental organizations. Without further ado, let’s see what awaits us together.
Xbox Gear Shop
Xbox Gear Shop has released great collections for the Pride event and presented all of them to people. Greatly limited edition t-shirts, bags, and more, designed by LGBTQIA+ individuals. The collections contain all feature Xbox Game Studio designs and eco-friendly options. Take a look from here.
