Microsoft 'to axe XNA'
Microsoft has given the clearest signal yet that it will phase out XNA, the development framework which had become popular among many indie game developers.
In an email reportedly sent to multiple game developers and MS employees, Microsoft confirmed that XNA would be "retired" from a program that promotes the company's own technologies.
However, many developers are still waiting on receiving this email.
The email said that XNA Game Studio is "not in active development".
In the long run, this would mean that the framework will be less and less relied on for developing Xbox games. But it is now speculated that Microsoft is preparing a replacement.
