The Xbox Gaming Division will suffer major cuts in this year, it seems the Microsoft is planning to save some cash when it comes to game development, this feels like some sort of concession to me. Anyways, everything comes on PC in this day and age, so trying to keep fighting the same battle for years without offering anything new an unique was rather pointless. The Xbox line of systems had some interesting titles, but all of that died when exclusivity stopped being a thing, the lines between console and PC are quite blurry now, and there’s a clear winner. We at Infinite Start will cover how many might suffer from these cuts.
Xbox Gaming is done for?
Next week, many expect a huge chunk of employees being removed from the gaming division. This will affect a ton of workers in every area of the division itself, including game designers and artists, it truly is a terrible time for working as a game developer for a big company. The sources come from within Xbox as a company themselves, but they want to remain anonymous since they don’t wanna be identified spreading non public information. You really have to be a hero to do such a thing against the NDA.
Xbox Gaming is in a dire situation thanks to this, some fans believe that maybe they won’t be able to recover, others already recognize that if you have a PC, you basically have a better Xbox at home. It truly is baffling that you can access Xbox as an application in Microsoft, allowing you to play the same games you have in your system, its like Microsoft themselves are telling users that getting an Xbox is pointless, gotta love that market cannibalization done by yourself. Honestly, I hope the people who get laid off can find a better job position in the industry, cause Xbox gaming isn’t it.
