Nadella said the restructuring is aimed at sustainable growth and better games as Xbox cuts thousands of jobs and shifts studios under new leadership.
- Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella praised Xbox's ongoing "streamlining" under Xbox CEO Asha Sharma during a recent podcast, expressing optimism about the brand's portfolio and its "ability to take that and produce great games going forward."
- These comments follow a massive restructuring led by Xbox CEO Asha Sharma that included 3,200 job cuts in July, with an additional 268 layoffs confirmed this past week affecting multiple studios.
