rename the file in batch

In my dir there are files like

a.xml
b.xml
abnc.xml
12.abc.xml
12.anc.sfoioi.xml

I need to remove .xml from all the files

Is there any direct way without using any for/do loop

Right now i am using
for file in *
do
newfile=${file%.xml}
mv file $newfile
done

Please let me know if there is any direct way in one line without any loop
