Microsoft to cut 650 jobs from Xbox division in latest round of layoffs

Xbox owner Microsoft is to cut about 6 hundred 50 staff from its gaming division in a new round of job losses after its $69 billion merger deal.
 
The software giant said staff working in mostly corporate and supporting functions worldwide would be affected.
 
It laid off 1,900 staff in January and, in May, closed four studios bought before its purchase of Call of Duty maker Activision-Blizzard.
 
Xbox boss Phil Spencer said no games, devices, or experiences are being cancelled and no studios are being closed due to the latest layoffs.
