The new console will retain full compatibility with the Xbox One.
At the Gamescom video game conference in 2016 in Cologne, Germany, Microsoft announced its intention to abandon the concept of “generation game consoles” in the production of its next Xbox.
In particular, we are talking about a future console codenamed Project Scorpio. The device, which should be the most powerful on the market, will not be the beginning of a new generation, and will fully support all the games and accessories Xbox One.
Microsoft aims to test a new commercial model, based on the rejection of a clear division between consoles different generations. The first step in this direction has already been made with the release of the Xbox One’s, which, despite all its improvements, has become a full part of the ecosystem Xbox One.
In the future this will allow us to more smoothly update the technical specifications of the devices, without depriving users of the opportunity to play both old and new games.
It is expected that the Xbox Scorpio will hit the market in 2017.
