Not necessarily. Most likely, Microsoft's engineers are helping the developers remotely. It is expensive to send people physically to support a studio and, thus it is rarely done.

Sorry, I didn't care if it was remote help or in-person help. I just wanted a confirmation from Jez if this "help" meant the Microsoft engineers were over helping optimise the game or not.
