Microsoft is killing its Twitch competitor Mixer next month and is partnering with Facebook to push its users towards the Facebook Gaming service.

The app is winding down on July 22. The sudden move comes after Microsoft has dumped considerable efforts into its gaming-centric streaming service, acquiring streaming rights to some of the biggest eSports personalities like Ninja and Shroud. Microsoft couldn’t spend its way into meaningfully competing with Amazon’s Twitch and Alphabet’s YouTube Gaming.
