    1. Looks like they are giving people the chance to voluntarily step down now before the bloodbath in a few weeks. Insider Gaming confirmed they know of atleast 2 studios closing one of which will “come as a surprise”. 

      Not surprised with how many first party games have flopped, selling poorly underperforming Xbox’s own internal sales goals that account for Gamepass

      – DoubleFines last 2 games were DOA flops back to back with less than 200 players on Steam at launch
      – Avowed and Outerworlds 2 from Obsidian bombed hard
      – Hellblade 2 didn’t make it into the top 40 best selling games of the month it came out in despite ZERO new AAA games coming out that month
      – South of Midnight from compulsion flopped
      – Indiana Jones sold really poorly 

    2. Oh yeah 55 million dollar golden parachutes for everybody who ruined the company! Let’s do it again in 10 years boys!

    3. Guys if you love Xbox games support Xbox devs directly by buying it on Microsoft store/Xbox pc app. If you buy from steam, steam get free 30% while doing nothing. If you buy from Xbox direcly this will help Xbox profit margin. Please support Xbox games directly. Thank you

      There were thousands of layoffs less than a year ago. Hate the 1% everyone. The MBA that you’re friends with is just waiting for a chance to cut people like they’re worthless garbage
