Even though the Halo franchise has been gutted for failing to meet unrealistic expectations, at least Bungie, the original creators of Halo, have also been separately gutted for failing to meet unrealistic expectations

What is there even to say about this Xbox stuff? Incredibly grim, legendary fumbles all around. A complete untangling of the weave, nothing but tatters and loose thread.. "Activision will also be developing the next Halo title" sounds like a threat. lmao
On our show today we're going to say this is bad and then Twitter and Reddit will clip it out and everyone's gonna say we have an anti-Xbox bias
Xbox - "Continuing Our Reset" - 'First, we are eliminating 268 roles across Halo Studios, other first-party studios, and the XGS management and central functions layer.' More: news.xbox.com/en-us/2026/0...
Only 1k+ layoffs to go in a 'reset' that is lasting months interspersed with the Kojima deal and pieces highlighting the CEO taking on support tickets. I would say all this does not fill one with confidence of success. But that relies on knowing the real end goal and that still seems up in the air.
Xbox is merging studios underneath Activision and Bethesda. Halo is now at Activision, alongside Rare and World’s Edge. 268 job cuts across Halo Studios, other first-party teams and Xbox Game Studios management. Ninja Theory faces closure. More here: www.thegamebusiness.com/p/halo-to-ac...

Microsoft makes big cuts at Halo Studios, shifts franchise to Activision
Deal to sell Ninja Theory falls through, dimming studio’s prospects

My takeaway from this is that Microsoft is moving from a studio-focused model, which is where they based their acquisition decisions on what companies could just operate independently with no oversight (which was stupid) to an IP-focused model where everyone loses autonomy in service of properties.
