Xbox’s Major Reset and Studio Cuts | Tech News

Published 1 week, 1 day ago
Description

Xbox is pulling the plug on 3,200 jobs and shuttering four major studios—Compulsion, Double Fine, Ninja Theory, and Undead Labs—as part of a bold reset to fix a struggling business. With Game Pass failing to gain traction and Activision’s acquisition not delivering expected growth, Microsoft’s gaming division is slashing costs and rethinking its strategy. Critics worry this signals Xbox’s retreat from console competition, while developers face uncertainty. Despite some high-profile projects still in the pipeline, the future of Xbox’s direction remains cloudy.
