Today at the Xbox Briefing at the Galen Center in Los Angeles, Microsoft gave us a full reveal of their highly anticipated console, Project Scorpio. This beast of a console will release as the Xbox One X on 7 November. The “World’s most powerful console” comes with a very competitive price point of $749NZD, $499US, 449 pounds, 499 Euros and $649AUD (NZ pricing has not yet been revealed but we will bring you that as soon as we know).<\/p>\n

Xbox One X was designed to be the best console to create and play games on, putting the greatest graphic fidelity in the hands of the world’s best game creators to create true 4K games. Head of Xbox Phil Spencer underscored that every game will play great across the Xbox One family, and Xbox One X also makes your existing library even better, with better textures, smoother frame rates and faster load times.<\/p>\n

“Xbox empowers game developers large and small to create different types of games for every type of player,” Spencer said. “Not only do we have the biggest cross-platform blockbusters on our platform, we’ve also scoured the world to bring our fans unique content from creative artists that capture the imagination.”<\/p>\n

Xbox One is the only console system designed to play the best games of the past, present and future. The Xbox One games and accessories you already own are compatible with Xbox One X, so if you’re an Xbox gamer, chances are you already have a library of games that will look and play better on Xbox One X.<\/p>\n

Spencer announced that Xbox will expand the Xbox One backward-compatibility library of nearly 400 popular Xbox 360 games to include original Xbox classics, starting with fan favorite “Crimson Skies.”\u00a0Xbox also revealed that “Gears of War 4,” “Forza Horizon 3,” “Minecraft,” “Resident Evil 7,” “Final Fantasy 15,” “Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands,” “Rocket League” and dozens of other popular Xbox One games will receive free updates to take full advantage of the power of Xbox One X. A host of these titles will be enhanced to run in true 4K, and many will be available at Xbox One X launch.<\/p>\n

The Xbox One X will be capable of true 4K UHD gaming and ulike the PS4 Pro, will feature a 4k UHD Bluray player so you can watch your 4k movies on the console along with game on it. The console features 6 teraflops of graphical processing power to accompany a GPU engine running at 1.172GHz. The Xbox One X will have 12GB of DDR5 RAM and to keep this thing cool the console will feature liquid cooling.<\/p>\n
