We are still learning about the numbers and teams affected by the wave of layoffs that Microsoft recently announced in the games department, which includes 1,900 employees. According to reports, this number includes 76 employees from the Sledgehammer Games development team, which specializes in developing Call of Duty games.
We note that previous reports indicated that the team will close its current office and move to fully remote work during the current year, with the intention of moving to a new, smaller headquarters.
