Will Xbox make the same mistake twice with its next console?
Thanks to a recent leak out of the Microsoft vs FTC lawsuit, we know the next Xbox console is releasing in 2028. And we also have some details about the console, including word that it's set to make use of the cloud to deliver additional power and performance. If this is true, then the console is presumably going to be always online. If that phrase sounds familiar it's because it was how the Xbox One was pitched years ago, and it was a disaster for Microsoft.
"Develop a next generation hybrid game platform capable of leveraging the combined power of the client and cloud to deliver deeper immersion and entirely new classes of game experiences," reads an official document about the next Xbox console."Optimized for real time game play and creators, we will enable new levels of performance beyond the capabilities of the client hardware alone.
Now, it's quite possible this vision is outdated and no longer representative of Xbox's current vision for its next console. And it's also possible there's nothing to this speculation. However, if the cloud is going to be integral to the next Xbox -- as these leaked documents suggest, and as Xbox's cloud initative in general suggests -- then it's unclear how the console would work offline.
