Microsoft’s new Xbox shake-up is all about platform changes

Microsoft is reshaping Xbox platform leadership under Asha Sharma with a major team reorganization.

Several former CoreAI leaders are joining the Xbox platform group, while Jason Ronald is being elevated.

Jason Beaumont will lead product and interim engineering, and longtime executives Roanne Sones and Kevin Gammill are stepping aside.

The overhaul points to a stronger focus on platform infrastructure, design, growth, and player experience rather than a broad AI push.
