Court Documents Have Leaked News That The Xbox Is Getting A Mid-Cycle Refresh
As the FTC furiously attempts to stop the Microsoft acquisition of Activision Blizzard, documents presented in its case are pulling back the veil of some of the tech giant's upcoming plans, including a mid-cycle refresh version of its Xbox Series consoles.
While documents yesterday reportedly showed that the next mainline Elder Scrolls game, aptly named The Elder Scrolls VI right now, will not be hitting Sony's PlayStation, it seems the documents also unveiled the plans for a mid-cycle refresh to Microsoft's own Xbox Series S and X consoles.
As reported by IGN, the documents leaked as part of the FTC's ongoing case against Microsoft (which has been confirmed to have been leaked by Microsoft themselves, which you can still check out shared on ResetEra) show an upgraded version of the Xbox Series X as well as a Series S, both of which are reportedly set to be announced in summer of 2024. The Series X refresh, codenamed Brooklin, is reportedly digital only and comes equipped with 16GB of RAM, a 2TB drive for storage, and packs 12 TFLOPS of power under the hood, which is identical to what the current Xbox Series X has. Interestingly, Xbox is ditching the large rectangle chassis for a giant cylinder.
