    The Xbox Games Showcase was absolutely insane this year, but there were four game trailers in that show that made me think about something big and I'm shocked no one is talking about it. Here I'll be diving into how Xbox is setting things up to completely remove themselves from being compared to anyone else next gen in 2026, why they're doing it, and my favorite thing...The craziest launch line up in Xbox History.

    I seriously think I'm onto something here and am really curious what you guys think of this whole thing.
    I really think this gen was the "comeback" one where they really started to recover after the Xbox One gen, and now they are setup to tackle what's next HARD: ua-cam.com/video/NJkMiWu3lUw/v-deo.html

      Well, you can hope you’re right and I do too, but the PS six is gonna be a beast the PS5 pro is going to be a beast last Xbox one X was bigger and faster than all the other PlayStation but they still lost that generation. I don’t know if it’s enough to pay people to game pass and as far as call of duty, they play about the same on PlayStation as it does on Xbox, but they gotta work on his fixing their friggin servers, if they don’t fix them, I don’t care how good the new Xbox console is for call of duty.

      I think it's a safe bet to say the hardware on the next gen Xbox will be superior to the PS5 Pro since they'll have time to respond, but yeah hardware is not the determining factors. The games will be that and not everyone will hop on the Game Pass wagon, but it'll still be a very enticing offer to be able to play the next CoD or Minecraft somewhere you don't have to pay full price and it'll play best on....right?

    I'm not certain if it's sunk-cost fallacy, but I think an early (2026) console release is a terrible idea. It could benefit 1st party devs but 3rd party will face the same difficulties as this gen. Publishers want to maximize customer base but allocating resources to supposedly 3 Xbox SKUS alongside PC & PS5 seems daunting. They'll have to make the difficult decisions to either delay release or exclude certain SKUs (maybe the entire platform since resetting the console gen puts it with a lower customer base).
    With regards to the Xbox 360 comparisons, MS became a competitive platform partly due to Sony's excessive PS3 pricing, hardware difficulties for 3rd party devs, infrastructure issues (PSN hack), and Xbox's 3rd party exclusive push. PS4 success was built upon a thriving 1st party portfolio and Xbox replicating many of these failures from the previous gen. I'm not confident that an early console release would replicate any previous success; especially since consumer confidence is somewhat mixed for the Xbox brand.

    We're not getting a Series X mid gen upgrade. So it makes sense for them to just launch next generation early. To regain the most powerful console status from PS5 Pro within a year or 2. And they will have a fantastic launch lineup. And who knows what else they're going to do.

When I began looking up the sales of the Microsoft and Sony console wars…yeah I wasn’t surprised when MS had to admit publicly that they have been lagging behind Sony since 2001. But this gets me a little excited again for their new system. I can’t wait to see what they have in store for the new Xbox come 2026!

      By then all these aquisitions will have been settled in and I think it'll be time to see the full effect of it having each of these teams releasing a game every 5 years give or take. Obviously I'd like it to be faster, but maybe the commitment to moving up the hardware will help with that.

    Great video, man ❤👏🏻 I'm gonna write an essay for you. so sorry 😂
    I agree with you on the most part and i think if they release their next gen consoles ahead of sony, it would let them to "escape" the competition and do their own thing.
    I agree with you that those games (perfect dark, SOD3, GEARS, Blade, OD and etc.) Would probably be close to the lunch of their next gen consoles and they can market those games as an next gen game in their showcases.
    But i think they would still release those games on xbox series too (at least perfect dark and SOD, because they have marketed these consoles with those games in 2020)
    But just like halo infinite and FH5, they would market those games as a next gen game. i was curious about those trailer that you mentioned and i rewatched the xbox showcase again and saw the MGS snake eater trailer and that didn't have any labels as well. Same as elder Scrolls vi trailer and indiana jones announcement trailer. Maybe it's because they're far away but I'm sure MGS would release on xbox series consoles.
    But overall😂 (sorry for the long comment) With the potential of having all these games, alongside the potential IW cod game, next halo game, next FH, next double fine game and more, the first 2/3 years of that generation would be MASSIVE.
    Thanks for making us great videos man ❤ and im incredibly excited for the future 🔥

      Yeah there are other trailers that didn't have it and I'm especially ticked I forgot about OD. These games very well could be cross gen launches, but it weirds me out that they were missing even the Series label. Forza Motorsport and Fable were missing them to, but that was during a period those labels were not constantly showing up like they did last year and this year. Either way even if they wind up being cross gen...What an insane launch year.

    so ive been an xbox-first player ever since the OG Xbox and i honestly dont think the brand will ever be on top like it was with the 360 (id argue the OG Xbox was also the best in its generation in every aspect other than sales and exclusives compared to the GameCube+PS2 but thats a diff topic for another time).
    For me, i dont think its a matter of exclusives to draw people into buying an Xbox. The 360 is the greatest of all time because of its features and capabilities, whether we're talking about their UI design and seemless dashboard navigation, the backwards compatibility, the online social features like friends list, party chat and recent players as well as messaging, NO REQUIRED GAME INSTALLS (PS3 and Wii had this too, along with consoles of the past but i mean dam...those times were so good, xbox should rly somehow create a new type of disc or cartridge that we can play off of), AND one of most reliable online services u could ask for during that generation (and arguably throughout most of the Xbox One era; yes xbox live suffered hacks and breaches like PSN, but the severity was FAR less than PSN; thus is why i dont mind paying for an online service if its the best in the industry).
    the OG Xbox and 360 are the ONLY xbox consoles i bought the standard edition of. The Xbox One was absolutely crap value at launch and i waited for the bs to be fixed/removed (like the kinect being bundled) along with a 1TB version of the console to come out. Similar thing with the Series X, i waited for a good value before buying it, which was the standard Series X but with the official 1TB expansion card bundled with it for just about the same standard price ($499). THIS is an example of what im talking about w/ Xbox and why ive been frustrated with them since 2013: if you don't show me something unique or exclusive to ur platform and all u hav done is upgraded ur hardware from last gen, why tf would i be excited for the next gen console?
    And i know this last point kinda doesn't matter but holy fk were the Xbox One and Series era console designs some of the worst designs ever. Like, where's the creativity? I'm really hoping they do a super cool/badass console design like that early prototype OG Xbox they showcased (the console was literally shaped in an X design, with the green xbox logo in the center; it was so fkn dope, i dont even care if that meant the console would only run as strong as a Series S, id buy that one ez).
    Would making console exclusives or even FULL (unavailable even on PC) exclusives boost their next-gen consoles? It's definitely possible. But, ever since social apps like Discord came out, and PC gaming has become a bit more mainstream since the early 2010s, there's rly nothing about the last 2 gens of consoles that they do that a PC can't. And, Xbox has made it clear for almost a decade now that they are focusing on their "Play Anywhere" scheme/ecosystem. If we see another non-innovative/revolutionary/unique feature heavy next gen Xbox, i stand by the prediction of the next gen Xbox being the last one that Microsoft allows their Xbox Team to do before pulling the plug on further generations of Xbox, joining the console discontinuation brands of Sega and Atari.

    I think Microsoft is going into next gen 1 year early simply because the Series S has become a problem for developers. Now that Microsoft owns over 32 developers and they're probably giving feedback on how hard it is to polish games for 2 systems.
    2026 I expect Xbox to launch a new console and a handheld at the same time. Instead of a series S, the handheld will be the secondary option.
    Jez did say Gears and State of Decay might be 2025 ready, but they can be pushed back to get out of GTA6 way.

I saw that Gears 2025 statement as well that Tom Warren said to I believe but I can see them holding on to it if need be and if the year is already super packed which it seems to be.

    I don't really understand what you are wishing for? That, games that didn't get the label Series XS will be released only on the next Xbox hardware? So they can sell more units because of the "insane line-up"?
    You can add Everwild, Contraband and The Outer Worlds 2 then, those game reveals didn't get any label as well. But wait, last year Fable didn't have any label as well but now it's scheduled for 2025 on Series consoles...
    From now on, every year will have 6-8 first party titles released. This is inevitable due to the number of teams Microsoft has working on new games. More than 35 games are developed at any time, even with a dev cycle of 6 years, that makes 6 games per year.
    So if the games are good, every year will be a great year for Xbox.

We'll see...if they make that the secondary system then it has to be dockable and has to have the same level of raam and cpu levels as the home console. The GPU maybe can be scaled down to be a 1080p focused system, but those other elements have to be in parody maybe.

      I thought of bringing up the handheld idea (maybe a seperate video). I think if they do that it would absolutely have to be dockable and have the exact same cpu/storage speed/raam other wise they'll face the same struggle as the Series S. It's fine if it can't go beyond 1080p 60fps, but don't make devs have to cater to it

    It's a bold fan theory and i can respect that.
    However, i think 2 things. first; not having the xbox symbol or a generic one is the fact that xbox games can be played on multiple platforms. Console, PC and mobile devices. The sheer thought can be overwhelming to try and explain to someone that theyre trying to bring over.
    The focus could be them trying to focus on their label since the front line focus of xbox now is Game Pass. Which brings me to my second point...
    Game pass' biggest sell point is not that you can just play games on it but you can play top AAA titles the day they release. They absolutely NEED to push out AAA titles cause theyre not gonna keep people subscribed just on indie titles. They have consoles to sell, and they need games.
    Reason theyre not getting a release date, that i see, is similar to how they "bait and switched" us into the current gen xbox. 2 of those 4 games were announced years ago. "Hey, we have all these studios, Great games are coming!" Question is...When???
    I know they have a team focusing on the next Gen console, however...If they pull what theyve done for the last 2 generations with a whole lot of hardware but no games, the next gen console release will be a seldom one.
    Now, im not saying it'll be the death of xbox. Game pass is super awesome! I mostly use it on my PC and Xbox One.... yup, i did not see the reason to move forward onto console this Gen cause I'm playing it safe with being able to play the same games on my PC with a lot more power and not twirl my thumbs waiting on a AAA release to use the $500 piece of hardware.
    Unless they can get their credit back up on Releasing games, ill stick to my other platforms to play game pass. Cause right now they are the King of awesome Trailers with no release date and Delayed and/or Canceled games. #RIPscalebound&fableLegends
    P.S. will always be a Xbox fan! i have a library of over 200 xbox games on disk across all gens. I'll stay loyal. However, being Loyal to someone or something means you gotta break bread with em and be honest...

Im pretty sure there wont be a "series S" but a handheld alongside the main console is pretty much confirmed.

If they pull it off, just like Netflix being essentially required to be downloaded on any and every hardware device, gamepass will be too.

    I switched to Xbox from a lifetime of Playstation and to be honest I am underwhelmed on what has been delived. I left PS because of the lack of games and the direction they were heading in. I saw Redfall and Starfield and with the knowledge of ES6 being exclusive and needing games I switched to play the old library I missed while PC gaming.
    While I still owned every Xbox except the Xbone I always used my PS when not PC gaming.
    Fast forward a decade and Redfall was a disappointment and Starfield was good but it was far from what I expected it to be but still a good game but definitely a one and done for now for me the. G plus didn't impress or interest me at all as a matter of fact I just deleted it to make more room.
    I have now went back to PC gaming because Xbox is pretty slow at delivering. I did keep game pass PC but quit Ultimate because PC has so many avenues for games . I hope my Series X will get more than just 2 years albeit long hours and good use out of it,will continue.
    We will see when the games come out because for any gamer that has been doing g this a long time games can be delayed for any reason so will all of these games come out when they say we will see. Also the biggest tech leap doesn't mean graphical power leap. I bet the next leap is api chips from AMD using on board graphics and AI. Technical leap is a. Road statement so we will see what is marketing and what is real world truth. I think several games will get delayed just because they have so many going. Great vid I enjoyed it.

    Thats a stretch, specially considering that games have better margin than consoles, consoles just exist as a venue to get the games to people, they probably keep xbox's coming, but their goal should be on cloud tech and using the studios to get revenue from the games ( no wonder sony was so afraid of losing cod, they generate a fuckton of profits not just revenue)

      Oh yeah I'm not talking about what's profitable or not here, just the plans to release these games and how they intend to pull users back in. Competition is great, but it's also nice to feel separate or unique to. I'm guessing you mean it's risky for them to have Next Gen Exclusives? If so yes it is a gamble.

We are already starting to reach the peak of graphic fidelity in games that it's starting to be less meaningful. Even if they release alongside the PS6 then it'll wind up being a repeat of the past 2 gens and folks will most likely just gravitate to the PS6 and it'll be another gen living in the shadows of...but if Xbox got a head start then at least they can not have anyone to compete with right?

    I've always felt that something big was coming since Gamepass annoncement + of course Activision acquisition, i mean it's obvious that they were looking for IP's, they couldn't afford to play on time in order to build new lovable IP's unlike what Sony has with their 1st party studios and Japans support as a whole. On the other MS is a trillion dollar company sometimes people tend to forget that, which SONY is also guilty of, all these decades Sony doing everything they can in order to handicap or slow Xbox progression/evolution, until MS decided to take the wheel and everybody started crying. Now it's wait and see i guess.
    Really good analysis btw of course it's just speculation at this point, but at least you build on what has been seen without being biased on the matter, at least i don't feel so crazy thinking that Xbox is going to blow up in a way i still can't comprehend but you managed to put words into it :D Perfect thinking "out of the box" from your part here, which what has to be done to speculate on big tech companies like this.

Yes they lose this gen but set everything in motion and also get 3rd party's onboard with devices like Rog Ally ect but if they look at Microsoft push all its ips on release year of the next gen console could be massive for them like it was for the 360.

    As much as they are wanting to improve. This is not a go at Xbox. However, the problem is they're not going to get more people. Doesn't matter how early they release. Unless it's offered at a ridiculous low price. Most people don't move if they're 110% into an ecosystem. This is both sides. Just going by the current sales outside of the USA. It would have to be given away to get more people to move back or over. Especially PS peeps. Just as an example the latest 3 month sales in the Euro Zone. PS5 sold 1.8 million, Series consoles less than 400,000. They're going to have to do something special to make those numbers up.
