A new ultra-powerful Xbox is on the way

Microsoft has been immersed in a change of strategy in its gaming division for some time. “An Xbox on every screen” already says a lot about the company’s intentions, of wanting to bring not only its Game Pass to any possible device, but also to start bringing games to its most direct competition. However, everything seems to indicate that this is bringing some of its titles to PS5 and Switch It won’t be the only Xbox surprise this year.

As the company hinted in yesterday’s announcement, they are also exploring new possibilities with hardware. Or rather, its new hardware, since Xbox has hinted that, at the end of 2024, we will see a new console.

The first big possibility that is being handled is the renewal of the current Xbox line: the launch of a more powerful console, a kind of Series X Pro in line with the rumors of the PS5 Pro, and the renewal of its Series S to be more in line with the demands of the market and the limitations that developers have today. From Xbox they say that the next console will be the most powerful in history.

Under what conditions and with what possibilities is a mystery. On the other hand, the launch of a portable Xbox console is also rumored. This could take the path of the PlayStation Portal: a laptop without storage not focused on use only with its consoles, but also with its cloud gaming. Or the opposite way: a console halfway between the Switch or Streamdeck with games available locally, and with the possibility of playing games in Streaming through Game Pass.
