Microsoft video games division lays off 1,900 staff
Almost 2,000 workers in Microsoft's gaming division are to be laid off after its $69b merger deal. In the letter, verified as genuine by Microsoft, Mr Spencer says losing staff was a "Painful decision". Microsoft finally purchased Activision-Blizzard and Candy Crush creator King last September after a series of battles with regulators. Microsoft itself announced 10,000 job losses last January across the wider company, with Amazon, Meta and others doing the same. The BBC has asked Microsoft for further comment on the redundancies in its gaming division.
