The layoffs, which affected teams across Xbox, Bethesda, and Activision Blizzard, were part of a plan to streamline operations and refocus on high-priority titles and services. While Sharma did not provide specific revenue figures, the claim of returning growth suggests that recent game releases and Game Pass subscriptions may be stabilizing the business.
