Lol’ed at the announcement of them working on the next gen Xbox

 

[IntentionalPun]

Weird thread title… isn’t it just one new digital X model?

 

[Chiggs]

Weird thread title… isn’t it just one new digital X model?

No.

 

[Generic]

Does the special edition have a disc drive?

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

The brand new Series X now adorably all digital .

 

[Mr.ODST]

Lol’ed at the announcement of them working on the next gen Xbox

Think its a statement that they aren't giving up on the system or the brand, think that messaging is key considering the negativity surrounding.

 

[IntentionalPun]

No.

Oh so they upped the storage on Series S too?

The screenshot shows a disc drive console lol

 

[El Muerto]

I was hoping for news on the new controller. It was rumored to be out May 24th of this year.

 

[Sushi_Combo]

I've been waiting for an All-Digital Series X. Prayers have been answered

 

[SoloCamo]

I do like the color scheme on that galaxy black, reminds me of the OG xbox. I'll probably pick up the controller.

 

[StereoVsn]

The brand new Series X now adorably all digital .

That’s not adorable. It’s rough and scratchy, and gets everywhere, just like sand.

 

[Celcius]

Without the disk drive slot, the all white Series X just looks like a shoe box lol

 

[Fart Knight]

Does the special edition have a disc drive?

Yes and it looks amazing

 

[leo-j]

Lol’ed at the announcement of them working on the next gen Xbox

2026 a whole 1-2 years before a ps6, and everything on gamepass.

 

[Generic]

Yes and it looks amazing

I wonder how much it will cost.

 

[ManaByte]

Weird thread title… isn’t it just one new digital X model?

Yes misleading thread title. The 2TB X has a disc drive.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

That’s not adorable. It’s rough and scratchy, and gets everywhere, just like sand.

Tbh, I'm relieved that they'll keep the Disc Series X in production, and now coming with 2TB of storage. Good move from MS.

 

[CrimsonSquall]

2026 a whole 1-2 years before a ps6, and everything on gamepass.

If Xbox drops a next gen console years before PS6, they are DOA again

 

[StereoVsn]

Tbh, I'm relieved that they'll keep the Disc Series X and now coming with 2TB. Good move from MS.

Yep, considering the price of their add on storage it’s definitely a smart move.

 

[ShirAhava]

My Xbox One X has a disc drive and can do BC/4K Blu Ray and with game pass I can stream 12Tflop Series X games

its a better deal than the White Series X or S

 

[Metnut]

Avowed looks cool. Everything else in 2026. I’m going to need to wait and see what their strategy is for porting to PS5. If they end up not porting much over, I might consider their new hardware in 2026.

 

[LordCBH]

$449 for the Digital Series X
$599 for 2TB Series X

 

[PharaoTutAnchAmun]

​

WHYYYY???????Whats the purpose

 

[reinking]

That rumored handheld would have been so much more exciting. I'm not sure this is going to be a big draw unless they have some good promos to go with them. I mean, more storage is cool and all but one of the key features of the Xbox Series was the easy expandable storage.

 

[Radical_3d]

$449 for the Digital Series X
$599 for 2TB Series X

Limited quantities. I wonder how will retailers will react to what is effectively the death of the disc. With the PSP Go they didn’t take it well.

 

[Generic]

$449 for the Digital Series X
$599 for 2TB Series X

"$599 for 2TB Series X"

I guess the dream of the PS5 Pro for $499 is over...

 

[LordCBH]

Hey Microsoft, can y’all drop the price on storage expansion cards? I’ll need one for BO6, but I’m not paying their scam pricing.

 

[Celcius]

Why give the digital model half the storage of the one with the disk drive?
lol

 

[peish]

$599...wowlol.
ps5 pro must be $699 for sure now

 

[MisterXDTV]

They are not selling the ones that are piling up dust on shelves now, why should these change anything??

I don't get it

 

[Tsaki]

Price matching the Pro

 

[DavJay]

The version with a disc drive is Limited. Guess they are killing of physical media after this as the standard series X appears to be digital only replacing the old one

 

[begotten]

I don't see these selling at all.

Would have been interested in seeing the supposed handheld instead.

 

[DanielG165]

"$599 for 2TB Series X"

I guess the dream of the PS5 Pro for $499 is over...

That was never happening to begin with, honestly. The specs alone would make a PS5 Pro $600.

 

[SenkiDala]

WHYYYY???????Whats the purpose

to play video games

 

[Red5]

WHYYYY???????Whats the purpose

Ship them with 6 months or maybe 1 year of Gamepass, that's a lot more value than 1 single bundled game from the competition. Get people to buy into the Xbox ecosystem and hardware and stay locked in for Gamepass.

That's the theory anyway.

 

[West Texas CEO]

NO!

 

[Xyphie]

The version with a disc drive is Limited. Guess they are killing of physical media after this as the standard series X appears to be digital only replacing the old one

The current SS 512GB and SX 1TB remains the same prices it seems.

This holiday, three new Xbox Series X|S console options will join our current lineup,

 

[Three]

$599 for a 4 year old console, just for more proprietary storage? I guess some fools would buy that and not complain.

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

No

 

[dotnotbot]

So the leak and plans were all right despite Jez and the rest dubunking them

The only difference is the trash can being square not round

 

[Banjo64]

512gb Series S in white.

1tb Series S in black.

1tb Series S in white.

1tb disc drive X.

1tb discless X.

Options are good, but maybe they could do with ditching the white 512gb S just to streamline things?

 

[VAVA Mk2]

The stuff about a handheld was a lie LOL.

 

[aliadiere25]

Their current consoles are not selling, so Xbox wants to put out a newer version of those existing consoles.

Who the hell is making these decisions from Microsoft?

 

[Aenima]

WHYYYY???????Whats the purpose

The purpose is to kill physical media. The disk version will be limited. This means only the digital versions will be available at a certain point moving forward.

 

[Mr.ODST]

512gb Series S in white.

1tb Series S in black.

1tb Series S in white.

1tb disc drive X.

1tb discless X.

Options are good, but maybe they could do with ditching the white 512gb S just to streamline things?

I think they are with this 1TB, if rumours are true and COD BO6 is 310GB it needs to be ditched

 

[Magic Carpet]

I was hoping for news on the new controller. It was rumored to be out May 24th of this year.

Yea, I've heard nothing more about this. I think it's a dead project. Not even rumors.

 

[aliadiere25]

$599...wowlol.
ps5 pro must be $699 for sure now

Not necessarily. PlayStation knows they can actually sell their consoles and make money back in the long run. The PS5 Pro will still make them a lot of money if they sell it around 500 to 550. Xbox doing this makes no sense because they're not selling their consoles.
