Microsoft Plans Thousands Job Cuts Across Xbox Gaming, Sales, Marketing

News summary

Microsoft is preparing to conduct a significant round of layoffs across its Xbox gaming division and other departments, with reports indicating thousands of job cuts expected in the coming weeks. Despite plans to release new gaming hardware and software, including a next-generation Xbox console and a Steam Deck competitor, the company is focusing layoffs primarily on sales and marketing teams. This marks the fourth wave of layoffs in recent years for Xbox amid a strategic shift toward multi-platform game availability rather than console exclusives. The job cuts coincide with Microsoft’s broader reorganization and efforts to reduce management layers to adapt to a changing market, even as the company pledges substantial investment in AI and data center development. Industry experts note the trend of AI-driven layoffs is growing across tech companies, with similar moves announced by Amazon and Intel. Microsoft’s layoffs follow a recent round where 6,000 employees were let go, and the company’s future workforce reductions suggest further structural changes in response to evolving technology and business priorities.
