Xbox expands Research division to collaborate with game developers

Microsoft has expanded its Xbox Research division, which traditionally focuses on player experiences, to solicit feedback from Xbox developers to improve future tools and services.

In a blog post, the company explained how its research team will "listen to developer partners in Xbox's ecosystem and [work] with product teams to bring forward insights and data that could help improve future tools and services."

The hope is that discussions and data will help Xbox Research "address pain points and enhance the experience of partners across the spectrum of disciplines."

Under the new program, the division will use research methods such as interviews, usability and play tests, surveys and more. Principal user research Deborah Hendersen said these are already used for players, but have been retooled to be more developer-focused.

Data from these studies "will help us figure out both what to build and how to build things well," she said. "It's all about giving game developers what they need to feel empowered and supported by Xbox."

Update: XR Games CEO confirms jobs at risk amid restructuring

Update (10/4/2024): In a statement to Game Developer, XR Games CEO Bobby Thandi confirmed layoffs are likely at the VR studio.

"Our priority during and after this process is to treat all team members with the utmost respect and care," wrote Thandi. "I’m heartbroken that we’re going to be losing some of our incredibly dedicated, talented and valued colleagues.

Microsoft slams 'misleading' FTC claims over Xbox Game Pass price hike

The FTC recently claimed Microsoft had turned Xbox Game Pass into a 'degraded product' by increasing the price of certain subscriptions and removing day-one access to first party titles from a new 'Standard' tier. Microsoft begs to differ.

The Xbox maker has issued a reply to the FTC and claims the regulator has pulled together a "misleading, extra-record account of the facts."

The company fired back in a letter spotted by The Verge reporter Tom Warren and indicated the FTC is attempting to "reinvent" its case against the tech giant after failing to stop its merger with Activision Blizzard.

It claims the FTC failed to take key facts into account when appraising the new Xbox Game Pass tiers and price plans, such as the inclusion of Call of Duty for Ultimate members and multiplayer access for Standard subscribers.

SAG-AFTRA can now call immediate strike if game companies refuse AI protections

The SAG-AFTRA National Board has granted national executive director and chief negotiator, Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, the power to call an immediate strike to protect voice actors working under the Interactive Media Agreement.

SAG-AFTRA is a sprawling union that represents approximately 160,000 actors, announcers, broadcast journalists, dancers, DJs, news writers, news editors, program hosts, puppeteers, recording artists, singers, stunt performers, voiceover artists and other media professionals.

Notably, its members include voice actors and performers plying their trade in the game industry. Those video game workers are protected under the Interactive Media Agreement (IMA) that has been adopted by major companies like EA, Activision, Epic Games, and Insomniac.

Towers & Titans dev Rumble Games shut down in 'ruthless' pursuit of profits

Last week, mobile developer Rumble Games (or R Studios) closed its doors, laying off 36 people. According to senior web architect David Bethune, the hammer came down from parent company Forte.

"This is [Forte's] second recent studio axing after Phoenix Labs got this treatment a few weeks ago," wrote Bethune. He added that the now ex-staff will only receive a single month of severance.

Founded in 2011, Rumble was known for a number of free-to-play mobile games like Towers & Titans. At this moment, it's unclear if the title will be kept operational, and what studio will continue development if that's the case.
