    It’s secretly benefiting the smaller game studios because Microsoft is basically giving up marketshare. The real question is whether MS wants to buy any more studios.

      With all the money they’ll save from shutting down all the smaller studios they can just go out and buy more.

      Benefits how? I feel like gaming is going to become like the startup sector where companies create something to specifically get acquired by a big company.

      Like it’s becoming so prevalent for these big gaming publishers to vacuum up IP and sit on it, it’s just the Disney-fication of gaming.
