Analyst believes in the launch of Xbox earlier

Microsoft is working on a new Xbox. Phil Spencer, the boss of the Xbox, confirmed at the Microsoft conference on the E3 2018. However, the manager did not mention any other details. The fact that the competitor Sony is already working on his new console (PS5), is likely to be. In a recent interview of Gamingbolt's English-language site, badyst Michael Pachter publishes new forecasts for next-gen consoles. The job for the Wedbush Securities badyst is therefore waiting for Microsoft to plan a launch before the PS5. The successor Xbox One (now for € 309.95) would be on the market sooner than a PlayStation 5.

In addition, Pachter believes that the new Xbox is backward compatible with any Xbox software One X will be. Buyers of the new console could also play games developed for the current platform. "I know it's hard for Xbox One X buyers, but they should know that after four years of cycling, a new console is coming in," comments Pachter. Also at a possible release date expresses the badyst. "I believe that Microsoft wants to launch the new console in 2020, but I also think that they will start earlier if they think that Sony also plans to launch [der PS5] for 2020," says Pachter. The next Microsoft Xbox could be launched sooner. That the statements are true, will have to show.
