Asha Sharma, newly appointed CEO of Microsoft Gaming, has initiated a major restructuring of Xbox, including thousands of layoffs, with the goal of making it the world's number one gaming and entertainment company by 2030. Sharma, who has no background in gaming, has promised to prioritize quality over short-term efficiency and to focus on creating great games.
The restructuring involves the elimination of 1,600 jobs immediately and up to 3,200 by 2027, as well as the sale of several Xbox studios, including Ninja Theory and Double Fine. Sharma aims to reach one billion daily players and plans to expand Xbox's entertainment offerings, including adapting popular games into movies and TV series, such as a Call of Duty film set for release in 2028.
