You can find the full article HERE, Please go give it a read. A few points of summation are below:

According to Jez the first bit of new hardware we’ll see is an Xbox Handheld Gaming PC known as “Codename Keenan”, set for later this year. According to Mr. Corden it “will look unmistakably “Xbox” we’re told, complete with an official Xbox guide button, and Xbox design sensibilities”.

For under the box users Jez states: “I understand that Microsoft’s next-gen hardware plans include a premium successor to the powerful Xbox Series X, alongside its own Xbox gaming handheld, and several new controller options. Tentatively, it seems these new console devices are slated for 2027”

Again, please visit Windows Central to read the full piece as there are a lot more juicy tidbits about Xbox’s future at the site itself. It has been a trying time for Xbox fans who live and breathe the console wars. While the platform, and all platforms for that matter, have more games than ever, there has been constant worry about the future of the ecosystem.
