Microsoft Corporation, a global technology giant best known for its Windows operating system, is planning to lay off a substantial number of employees from its Xbox division as part of a broader ... This would mark Microsoft’s fourth major round of layoffs in just 18 months.

Tech giant Microsoft is all set for another round of job cuts, this time within its Xbox division.
