Microsoft is reportedly planning to launch a new Xbox console next year, and recent leaks suggest it will be based on AMD’s Zen 6-Magnus APU. The upcoming console, which coincides with the Xbox brand’s 25th anniversary, might feature three instances of the powerful Zen 6 core and eight Zen 6C cores, although some sources indicate one or two could be disabled.
Additionally, the next-gen Xbox will reportedly come equipped with a 384-bit memory bus. While AMD’s RDNA 5 GPU has not been confirmed as part of the console’s design, rumors suggest it may provide performance comparable to NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 4090 or upcoming Ampere-based GPUs like the 5080 Super.
A potential price tag for the next Xbox console is around $1000, although this remains unconfirmed. As the release date for the new console approaches, investors and enthusiasts alike are eagerly awaiting more information about its specifications and pricing.
