Who knows whether Sharma is being serious about bringing back the blades or not, but we do appreciate how responsive she was on social media last night. The aforementioned Major Nelson, for example, suggested that “partner[ing] with the community” should be a key focus for the team, which she acknowledged and appreciated.

It does feel like there’s a lot of doom and gloom surrounding last night’s Xbox leadership changes, but we want to give the new Xbox head every chance to impress us going forward — this is a massive role she’s stepping into, and she’s clearly enthusiastic and passionate about trying to make Xbox as good as it possibly can be.
Could the return of the Xbox blades dashboard factor into that? We wouldn’t complain if it made a return!
Would you want to see the blades return? Tell us down in the comments section.
