And of course, last year we saw the release of the PlayStation 5 Pro, which is clearly the best version of the console to date, but it’s also the most expensive – and not necessarily providing the kind of gains that most players want.
Is Microsoft really going to drop a meaningful new console that can move the needle in just two years’ time? Perhaps, if it’s set to be something totally different – like a box that supports Steam and other third-party launchers in addition to just Xbox console games. Otherwise though, it’s hard to say where the major advancements are coming from.
There’s obviously a lot of speculation about how Xbox’s next console will utilise AI and the cloud in innovative ways, but again, it remains to be seen whether any of that can attract the masses – especially when 2027 is just around the corner.
So, what do you think? Is it too early to release a new console in 2027? Tell us in the poll and comments below!
