Is anyone here concerned about how the recent Xbox layoffs will affect this game?

Denize and Mr. Dragon are doing their best to support Xbox with their passionate cosplays about game franchises owned or published by Xbox or its subsidiaries. Come check out what they've done here.

Ah interesting, good to know.

Yes, apparently. From what it looks they might also be the ones who answer Player Support questions in general through the "contact us" method.

QueenB is the only employee here as far as I know.

And the Game Experts apparently @christinewupp

Moderators are not employees and cost King nothing. QueenB is the only employee here as far as I know.

I wonder if it will affect the moderators of this forum…?

Yes the overall number of redundancies at Microsoft is more (9000), but King's part of this process is 10% of their workforce.

About 10%.

I thought that Candy Crush is already largely run by AI. Do King still have employees?

How big of a percentage layoff is this? How many employees does King have?

Was just reading that article…! Is it not much more than just 200 layoffs?
