All that talk about how Xbox is investing in the Japanese market and then they close the one prominent Japanese studio that they own. The same one that, as the article points out, made Hi-Fi Rush which was "a break out hit". What the hell, Microsoft.

It's not about making good games. It's about acquiring assets then liquidating them, marking them as a loss.

Microsoft have been doing this for decaces, they're low key known for aquiring good IPs and then just shuttering them forever.
