Xbox |OT|

This new King studio is specifically geared up for agility, eschewing some of the bureaucratic bloat that can occur in bigger teams. Microsoft has also repositioned some of its existing studios around this thought process, with Halo developer 343i also taking on a more streamlined single-team organizational style, ditching its siloed multi-team format of yesteryear which was often cited to me as having communication issues. The Verge also noted recently that Xbox has now moved into one departmental building at Redmond HQ, specifically to improve communication and collaboration.
