The gaming industry is the only industry where people cry about layoffs, it’s sad Can’t remember the last time someone cried about a McDonald’s worker getting layed off or someone in the movie industry loosing their job

Yeah but the Blade movie is cancelled & no one promised anything, just because something is announced doesn’t mean it’s a promise, companies don’t work on promises that’s not how the real world works

I do understand the Xbox reset. I do understand why it's needed; why some studio departures are needed, even if they hurt. But if you made commitments and promises to this Xbox community; stand by them. Just as you stood to much worse ideas such as Halo or Fable becoming multiplatform.

Yep this is what happens when CEOs come in & inherit a business that isn’t healthy, They could’ve closed you months ago but they didn’t “We are a collateral victim of Xbox’s change in strategy”, summarising the affairs as a form of “cannibalisation”.

Le Monde: Details on Microsoft’s Desire to Shutter Arkane Lyon https://playday.one/2026/10/23/le-monde-details-on-microsofts-desire-to-shutter-arkane-lyon/

playday.oneLe Monde: Details on Microsoft’s Desire to Shutter Arkane LyonPer a report by Le Monde, Microsoft is looking to shutter Arkane, the some 217-man studio in Lyon, France. Management had informed the employees on 16 July, a decision coming from "the very top" (the "great reset") and has wrought anger in a decision that is "deemed incoherent" per a head, anonymised as Simon, from the populaire écologique et sociale ("NUPES") union. This report---translated through Lingvanex hosted by Vivaldi---is an additive to the earlier reports of Microsoft divesting from the developer by potentially spinning off the company thru consultations and another investor.

At first, I thought the Xbox Helix's rumored $1,200–$1,800 price made *no sense* against, well, everything @xbox.com execs said about affordability. Then I remembered: "radically different business models." Come take a think with me? www.theverge.com/games/101613...

theverge.comThe next-gen Xbox won’t cost you $1,800. It can’t. Can it?Didn’t Microsoft say the next Xbox needed to be affordable?

Putting that price range in your titles & headlines is not cool, there’s people out there who will see that & think it’s a fact when nothing has been confirmed Could it be that much with how things are yes of course This is how the XBOX IS DEAD NARRATIVE starts up again & we don’t want that

Who said it? Fortune attributes that information to internal projections, not to a direct statement from Asha. What Asha actually said in the interview: She discussed Xbox's plans and strategy, but she did not publicly confirm that price range in a direct quote.

I checked the October 20, 2026, Fortune profile by Sebastian Herrera. Here's the important distinction. What Fortune reported: “the price of the Helix console has internally been projected to cost consumers between $1,200 and $1,800, unless Microsoft decides to subsidize the cost.”
