Nearly all of them. Back when I was doing my regular Xbox studio size updates 1+ year ago I saw quite alot of growth from most of their studios. Even more growth at most of them in the 1+ year since I stopped doing the studio size updates. Pretty much the only studios that haven't really grown at all since 3 or 4 years ago are 343 (which laid off most of their singleplayer division earlier this year), The Initiative (they shrunk from about 70 to about 50 devs after they decided to collab on Perfect Dark with Crystal Dynamics), and Double Fine (they have been around 80 ever since Xbox acquired them I believe). The biggest growers over the last few years meanwhile have been Playground, Obsidian, Compulsion, Rare, Ninja Theory, Machine Games, Zenimax Online, and Mojang.

That can’t be right. I was told Xbox wasn’t investing in their studios.

Phil needs to be axed once this deal fails (it's his fault, dude too busy playing Pillars of Eternity) and MS has lost all faith in Xbox. Wonder who will buy them.
