Phil Spencer only took over after the failure of the Xbox One. They've been killing it since then.

I’m not sure I would describe the state of Microsoft gaming as killing it, but I did miss that he came in after the OG Xbox One release.

The fact that the brand didn't completely die at that point was surprising.

Yep agreed, that was definitely a do or die moment.
