Microsoft does not own xboxone.com
Options
Microsoft has filed a complaint over XboxOne.com and XboxOne.net in hopes of taking control of the domains.
According to Fusible, Microsoft's dispute is filed with the National Arbitration Forum (case number 1501205, currently listed as “pending” on the NAF database), and the company is seeking to acquire the websites from a single UK resident who owns both. The WHOIS info for both domains suggests that they were registered on December 29, 2011 by a Krasimir Hristov Ivanov who resides in London.
We reached out to Microsoft and a representative provided the following statement to IGN:
“Microsoft's domain name portfolio is a part of its ongoing business strategy, but beyond that we have no comment.”
Microsoft previously registered a handful of domain names for rumored Xbox codenames including Xbox 8 and Xbox Fusion. It’s worth noting that Microsoft also does not appear to own the Xbox One Twitter account.
