Overview
- Hardware insiders KeplerL2 and Moore’s Law Is Dead each report Sony and Microsoft are targeting 2027 for their next consoles.
- Moore’s Law Is Dead claims to have documents indicating PS6 manufacturing begins in early to mid 2027, which would set up a late‑year launch if plans hold.
- Leaked comparisons portray Microsoft’s ‘Magnus’ with a larger AMD APU, higher CPU/GPU counts, and more memory than Sony’s ‘Orion’/PS6.
- Pricing chatter from the same reporting pegs the next Xbox at a premium tier, with estimates between $800 and $1,200 tied to a console‑PC hybrid push.
- Microsoft says it remains invested in future Xbox hardware, as all specifications, timelines, and prices cited in leaks remain unconfirmed and subject to change.
