Game company profile: Microsoft
Microsoft Corporation is a multinational technology company headquartered in Redmond, Washington, USA. Founded by Bill Gates and Paul Allen on April 4, 1975, the company has grown to become one of the world's largest and most influential technology companies. From its early success with MS-DOS, Microsoft made a revolutionary leap with the Windows operating system, which became the standard for personal computing.
Windows 95 marked a significant milestone, bringing graphical user interfaces to a broader audience, and subsequent versions like Windows XP, Windows 7, and the latest, Windows 11, have continued this legacy of innovation and usability.
Microsoft's foray into gaming with the Xbox console series has established it as a major player in the entertainment industry. The acquisition of game studios like Mojang (creators of Minecraft) and ZeniMax Media has further solidified its position in the gaming market.
