Ninja Theory was reportedly already set for closure when Senua was revealed, adding another complicated layer to the reaction around Xbox, its studios, and the future of Microsoft Gaming.In this video, I break down the Ninja Theory report, the reaction from developers and fans, and the bigger issue Xbox keeps running into: a long stretch of game launches that have struggled to generate the momentum Microsoft needs.This is not just about one studio.

Xbox is facing another brutal wave of bad news. Reports say Compulsion Games, the studio behind South of Midnight and We Happy Few, could be shut down or is in negotiations with Microsoft over its future. At the same time, Xbox Game Studios boss Craig Duncan is stepping down after just over 18 months in the role.This comes after recent reports that Microsoft has considered major options for Xbox, including restructuring or even spinning off the gaming business. So what does this mean for Xbox Game Studios, future exclusives, and the long-term future of Xbox?

Diablo Immortal has always had one major criticism: pay-to-win. So when I had the chance to speak with Blizzard about the new Warlock class, I asked directly how the team thinks about PvP, monetization, and whether players can jump in without feeling instantly outmatched.
We also talked about the future of Diablo Immortal, what the game offers that Diablo 2, Diablo 3, and Diablo 4 don’t, and whether Diablo Immortal 2 could ever happen.
