Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Isn't Retiring, Despite Rumors Otherwise https://ift.tt/tYsSWy6 The rumored Xbox layoffs arrived earlier today, and they were even deeper than expected. Microsoft made significant job cuts across the board, including the cancelation of Rare's Everwild and a new MMO from The Elder Scrolls Online team .
