Recently, according to multiple sources, after 12 years of operation, Microsoft has closed the Bethesda studio in France, and called the move a "low-key closure". As partners posted that their time with the company was coming to an end, news of the closure began to circulate.
A community manager tweeted: "I have dedicated 8 years of my life to Bethesda France. 8 years of wonderful encounters, memories and unique opportunities that I will never forget. A page of history that is being turned over is painful for many. ”
And the same community manager said in his reply that this was because of "Microsoft's massive layoffs around the world." It is understood that Microsoft has previously made significant layoffs, as part of a 1,900-person layoff plan announced in January to promote sustainable growth.
