Xbox CEO is reportedly planning three more rounds of layoffs

Xbox CEO Asha Sharma is planning new rounds of layoffs for sometime this month, November, and January, according to Fortune . In July, as part of an organizational "reset," Sharma announced planned layoffs affecting 3,200 staffers over the course of Microsoft's 2027 fiscal year, including 1,600 cuts at that time, and in September, Microsoft laid off around 260 employees . Sharma's changes have also included letting Double Fine and Compulsion Games become independent again, though Senua developer Ninja Theory may close.
