Looks like in the Fall of 2023, Amy Hood put a 30% profit margin mandate on the Xbox division, which was RIGHT after the ABK merger was finalized.

Suddenly all the decision making that Xbox leadership makes sense. They’ve been given a practically impossible task. Hood must’ve seen that ABK once hit that margin and figured that everyone else could do it as well.

I figured all these changes were due to higher ups at Microsoft forcing them to increase profit margins. I'm not sure any bigger gaming company comes close to 30% profit margins.
