Post Microsoft bought Mojang for 2.5 billion
https://mojang.com/2014/09/yes-were-bei ... microsoft/

Looks like the main reason behind it was to port MineCraft to the Microsoft devices. The Windows Phone and the RT versions of the Surface tablets weren't able to play Minecraft for they weren't ported. Mojang wouldn't port them because Notch was against Microsoft actually releasing an RT system.
