Microsoft has begun a new round of mass layoffs, impacting its gaming division despite Xbox boss Phil Spencer saying that the company’s “platform, hardware, and game roadmap have never looked stronger.”
Whispers of upcoming job cuts were reported by Bloomberg last week, which now writes that employees are being informed today of the plans. Candy Crush developer King is cutting around 200 jobs, affecting roughly 10% of its staff, according to the site’s sources. The exact number of layoffs across other offices, such as in the US and the rest of Europe, isn’t currently clear.
In a statement provided to GamesRadar+ on July 2, a Microsoft spokesperson says: “We continue to implement organizational and workforce changes that are necessary to position the company and teams for success in a dynamic marketplace.”
