Microsoft has spoken about the next-gen platform Project Scarlett several times. Completely surprisingly, the final name and design have already been presented at The Game Awards 2019.

In the coming year, Microsoft wants to score with its next-gen home console and declare war on Sony, which was previously simply known as the Xbox Project Scarlett. In view of the envisaged release in autumn 2020, further information on the name and design was only expected for the coming year, but the Redmond company surprised them much earlier.
As part of The Game Awards 2019 last night, Microsoft already showed a first trailer for the platform, in which the final name and design are confirmed. Microsoft's new console will therefore be released as Xbox Series X for Christmas 2020; At the moment, however, no further comments were made regarding the more specific release date and price.
The design of the new platform is also remarkable, because it largely moves away from the usual rather broad design of all previous home consoles. Instead, the console is stylistically based on modern, smart speakers and will go up in the future with a small contact area.
The Xbox Series X is, of course, described as the "fastest and most powerful Xbox" ever made. All 15 Xbox Game Studios are currently working on exclusive games for the new platform. The sequel Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 has now been announced as the first title for the Xbox Series X.
The console is said to be capable of 4K resolution at 60 fps. Even 120 fps and 8K is mentioned under certain conditions. In addition, the Xbox Series X is said to outshine the previously known standby functions of games. Microsoft sees its customers as players who play several titles in parallel and want to switch back and forth without wasting time. The new console will be able to keep several games in standby at the same time.
Completely surprisingly, Microsoft already showed the next-gen platform Xbox Series X at the The Game Awards 2019.
