It has been announced that among the 18,000 jobs that Microsoft plans to cut, most of which will come from its Nokia acquisition last year, Xbox Entertainment Studios will also be shut down. Xbox Entertainment Studios developed original programing such as a show based on the very popular “Halo” video games, and a reality TV show called “Every Street United” which launched last month. Phil Spencer, head of Xbox Entertainment Studios, said the programs that are already in production will go on as planned.
