"we will end or decrease work in certain areas of the business" - End is a scary word, but maybe it's about merging Zenimax/ABK into MS Gaming.

"follow Microsoft’s lead in removing layers of management to increase agility and effectiveness." - This would back up that it's about merging Zenimax/ABK into MS Gaming...

"Out of respect for those impacted today, the specifics of today’s notifications and any organizational shifts will be shared by your team leaders in the coming days." - Won't learn about the reorganisation changes for a few days.

The whole 2nd paragraph feels like a slap in the face to employees.

"Our platform, hardware, and game roadmap have never looked stronger." - Hardware was reaffirmed at least so I guess they aren't ending anything there.

"The success we're seeing currently is based on tough decisions we've made previously. " - It's based on the employees you're laying off.

"Employees whose roles were eliminated are encouraged to explore open positions across Microsoft Gaming, where their applications will be given priority review." - Lol.
