Microsoft's plan to compete with Netflix and Amazon by producing its own TV shows has come to an early end, as the firm announces 18,000 job cuts.

Xbox Entertainment Studio will close by the end of the year, Xbox chief Phil Spencer told employees in an email.

The studio launched to great fanfare in 2012, having secured Steven Spielberg to produce a spin-off of the military-themed sci-fi video game, Halo.

That show will go ahead, despite the studio's closure, Microsoft said.

Five other shows had been given the green light, and a further 11 were in development.

The majority were male-friendly titles, with ties to the company's major video game franchises, including Gears of War, Age of Empires, Fable and Forza Motorsport.

Only one had made it to air - Every Street United, a football-themed reality show, which debuted last month.

Documentary programme Signal to Noise and a second Halo spin-off, Halo: Nightfall, written by Prison Break creator Paul Scheurin, are already in production and will be not be cancelled.

Humans, a co-production with Channel 4 in the UK, is also expected to go ahead.

A remake of a Swedish series about humans living with robot servants, the eight-episode drama is scheduled to debut next year.

"Xbox will continue to support and deliver interactive sports content like NFL on Xbox, and we will continue to enhance our entertainment offering on console by innovating the TV experience through the monthly console updates," said Microsoft in a statement.

The closure comes against the background of major cuts at the technology firm.

Up to 18,000 jobs will go, the majority from its phone unit Nokia, which Microsoft bought in April.

The firm employs 127,000 globally, including 3,500 staff in the UK.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has confirmed that his company will amalgamate all major versions of Windows into one operating system. Speaking on the company's quarterly earnings call today, Nadella told analysts Microsoft will "streamline the next version of Windows from three operating systems into one single converged operating system." Describing the implications of the change, Nadella said "this means one operating system that covers all screen sizes."

Previously, under the management of Steve Ballmer, Microsoft had multiple teams producing different versions of Windows working separately from each other. "Now," Nadella said, "we have one team with a common architecture." The Microsoft boss didn't clarify exactly how Windows, Windows Phone, and Xbox will be unified, but noted the benefit for users and developers — while Microsoft will still sell different editions of Windows, the new unified platform will allow the creation of universal Windows apps that work across all devices running the OS.

The Kyoto-based game and console maker has long had a reputation among analysts for being overly optimistic in its forecasts. However, predicting sales of more than 10 million 3DS units for the second half of the year, having sold less than two million in the first half, appears to be stretching the credibility of Nintendo's predictions to a new level.
