Xbox's next-generation system could be the boldest move yet for the company, if rumours prove accurate. Leaked information claims the next Xbox will work more like a mini PC than a traditional console - with Steam support built-in.
Should these rumours be true, the system will run a version of Windows and come with a console-friendly interface designed for your television. Gamers will get the best of both worlds: the convenience and familiarity of console gaming with the breadth and flexibility of storefronts on PC.
Players could switch between titles available on Xbox Game Pass, their Steam library and games available on the Epic Games Store, all on one device.
One of the most interesting aspects of the rumours so far is that Steam support could come pre-installed or already integrated into the Xbox’s platform, which would require no tricky workarounds or manual installations - just your existing PC library available on demand.
This would be great for gamers who want console gaming's ease and comfort without giving up the versatility of PC platforms.
The reported design will emphasize TV gaming with powerful hardware crammed into a living-room-friendly form factor. It’s said to be capable of running both console exclusives and PC-style games at good performance levels.
Gamers will be able to blur the line between console and PC platforms more than ever before. There’s no comment on these rumours from Microsoft at this time, but fans are excited to see if this next-generation Xbox will indeed revolutionize how we think about console gaming.
