During The Game Awards 2019, Microsoft unveiled the next generation of Xbox: Xbox Series X. Or so that's what we and everyone else thought it was called. However, Business Inside I recently spoke with a Microsoft lawyer who confirmed that the name of the next generation is simple. Xbox – Series X is the name of the model coming next year.
"The leading name of the next generation is simply the Xbox," said a Microsoft representative. “And at The Game Awards you saw that name came to power on the Xbox Series X.” In a separate quote, a representative told Buster Insider: "Much like what fans have seen over the past generations, the name & # 39; Xbox Series X & # 39; for more comfort in the future. ”
This is the same naming convention on the powerful Xbox One X and the less powerful Xbox One S.
It is still unclear whether Xbox intends to continue to suggest weak complaints with the S, leading to the Xbox Series S next year. It is also possible that Microsoft can completely streamline the cheaper model, and Series X will be the end of the next-generation console from Microsoft in 2020.
Xbox boss Phil Spencer talked about the new name with him GameSpot, again, we note the possibility of other versions. "The word" & # 39; Series X & # 39 ;, gives us the freedom to do other things with that name so we can make our own explanations when needed, "says Spencer.
The Series X offers exciting new features for Xbox players – including a new controller with a share button. The newly announced console can also play all generations of Xbox games and is more powerful than the Xbox One. But all that really matters is we know how the next generation is called now.
It's Xbox, dammit. That is the official name.
