Update: Microsoft’s Mike Ybarra has revealed on Twitter that the Scorpio console will support Xbox 360 backwards compatibility.
Console’s are weird right now aren’t they? First we had the rumors, and then the announcement of the PS4 Pro, and in between we had Microsoft’s announcement and release of the Xbox One S, a souped up 4K-lite version of the Xbox One.
And next year with Project Scorpio, Microsoft is bringing yet another console to the table.
The console was announced at Microsoft’s E3 briefing this year, and it claims it’s going to be the most powerful console ever built.
From looking at its specs compared to the PS4 Pro, it looks like Microsoft might be right about that one.
The motive for Microsoft’s expediency is to attempt to keep up with the demands of gamers for emerging technologies like 4K, VR and HDR content. Another reason is that, should Microsoft wait any longer, high-end PCs that already support these technologies will only get further ahead in the race to reach that next high-fidelity visual plateau.
