news hardware Xbox Series X: A smaller and more powerful model in the pipeline at Microsoft?
On one side or the other, each manufacturer is in the shadows tackling the next announcements that will capture the attention of video game enthusiasts. We know Sony is working on major studio acquisitions alongside the launch of the PlayStation Plus redesign. Microsoft has been rumored to be launching a family subscription to Game Pass, but it’s not just new rumors that the American giant’s lineup of consoles is being followed.
A more compact and powerful Xbox Series X?
It’s now been just over a year and a half since the next-gen consoles – which are gradually becoming the ” current gen – came out. And inevitably, as far as the generation that is being formed is concerned PS4 and the Xbox Onethe rumors didn’t drag on to evoke a new, more powerful model. Information arrives in successive waves on the Sony side, but little when it comes to Microsoft.
However, Brad Sams, a technology journalist, began stoking a rumor about a more compact and more powerful version of the integrated chip Xbox Series Xmaking it less energy intensive. According to him, Microsoft is already working on this famous silicon chip of the Xbox Series X: the work of the Redmond company is also at a fairly advanced stage. ! Despite his “claims,” the journalist tries to dampen public enthusiasm by suggesting that this revamp may be more mundane than it seems.
An answer to the rumors about the PS5 Pro?
According to the journalist The chip overhaul is unlikely to lead to improved home console performance in games. There would be more efficiency, but the chassis and design would remain the same. However, all of this has the benefit of returning the limelight to a mysterious Xbox dubbed ” Project Keystone ‘ to which the journalist retorted.
As he remembers, the project keystone seems like a bigger project than just revising them Xbox Series X. For this reason, and given that the likely improvement in the console chip will not affect game playback, this overhaul would not be behind Microsoft’s intriguing project.. Revisions of course, but a clear evolution of the Xbox Series X is not to be expected in the short term.
In the long term, that remains to be seen. As reported by our colleagues GameRantMicrosoft may be interested in a fully digital version of Series X, like the PS5 Digital Edition that would ship the new model of the chip, in addition to assuming the size of its sister, the Series S. It goes without saying that the improved versions of the new generation consoles, if indeed they exist one day, are not there for the time being!
