Microsoft will not participate in the April Fool ritual this year.

There are only a few days until April 1 and we are sure that the net will be flooded with the most vulgar jokes, and those that will leave more bitterness in the mouth for hours and hours.

In any case, an important player in this now consolidated celebration will be called out , or the Xbox platformer.

In an internal memo from The Verge, we learn that the company’s marketing manager Chris Capossela asked the employees not to play any jokes.

“The data tells us that these stunts have a limited positive impact and can result in unwanted news cycles”, explained the Microsoft executive.

“I appreciate that people have spent time and resources on these activities, but I think we have more to lose than to gain by trying to be funny in this sp ecifico giorno “.

There is still a hope, that is that the Xbox marketing team is missing from the general company directive, but we are not convinced that this may occur.
