Xbox 2 Coming in Holiday 2020 | To Feature Ray Tracing, 4K 60 FPS?
Xbox 2 Latest Leaks and Rumors
As you probably know, there are a lot of rumors going around the internet about the next-generation of gaming consoles. The latest rumors claimed that the Sony PlayStation 5 and Xbox 2 are both going to feature cutting edge graphics due to the custom made Zen 2 CPU and Navi GPU. According to the latest rumors, Microsoft is going to release two different Xbox consoles, Xbox 2 and a streaming Xbox console which are both supposedly going to be released in holiday 2020.
Xbox 2 Coming Holiday 2020
According to the latest rumors around the internet, Microsoft is going to release the next-generation of Xbox consoles sometime around holiday 2020 while the Xbox 2 devkit is going to be given to developers in April or March 2019. A 2020 release date makes a lot of sense as it means that the Xbox One will be 7 years old. Both the Xbox One and Xbox 360 were released in late November so, it would make sense to see the Xbox 2 sometime in November. With a November release date, Microsoft can use hype to make a good amount of money thanks to the holidays.
Next-Gen Xbox to Feature Ray Tracing
According to the same source that leaked the Xbox 2’s release date, both the Xbox 2 and streaming Xbox consoles are going to feature ray tracing and DirectX. Of course, ray tracing will be toned down so that the Xbox 2 can run games without too many issues. It takes an $800 RTX 2080 GPU to run games at 1080p 60 FPS with Ray Tracing set to ultra so, Microsoft will have to do a lot of optimization to get games to run smoothly on the Xbox 2.
Xbox 2 and Streaming Xbox Specs
The next-gen Xbox 2 is supposedly going to feature a custom made AMD Zen 2 CPU which is going to feature 8 cores and 16 threads. Xbox 2 is going to feature a custom made Navi GPU which is going to feature 12 TFLOPs of performance and 16Gb of GDDR6 RAM which is going to be shared between the console and GPU. The most surprising part is that Xbox 2 is going to feature a 1TB NVME SSD with 1GB/s+ bandwidth. Xbox 2 is going to cost $500 and, it’s going to feature better specs than a $900 gaming PC.
The streaming Xbox console is going to feature a custom made Zen 2 CPU with 8 cores and 16 thread. It’s also going to feature a custom made AMD Navi GPU which is going to feature 4TFLOPs of performance. The console is going to feature 12GB of GDDR6 RAM which will be shared between the console and GPU and a 1TB NVME SSD. It is going to cost you $249 which is a really good price. Microsoft will have to do a lot of work if they want to deliver proper game streaming. If Microsoft is able to deliver proper game streaming services, the next-gen streaming Xbox console can be really successful.

Personally I think that the probability of Sony and Microsoft releasing a new console for Christmas 2019 is about %60-40 for a new release!!
The first Xbox came out in November 2001, XBOX 360 was released November 2005 4 years later, and XBOX ONE was November 2013. November 2019 would be six years later and the Jaguar APU is getting a bit long in the tooth especially when compared to the upcoming Ryzen with NAVI cores! AMD NAVI roadmap has it appearing 2nd half 2019 so it would make sense for a new console release November 2019.
Besides Dr. Su is very confident that AMD would see revenue growth in the high single digits. She has almost a cat with the canary look. Shipping half a $billion new XBOX and PS5 APU’s would certainly see that revenue growth achieved!
There is absolutely no good reason for MS or Sony to wait for November 2020. There will be beaucoup 7nm Ryzen APU’s in the wild and the existing consoles just cannot compare. 7nm will be pretty mature as well.
In fact analysts like to point out that AMD is losing revenue from reduced console shipments!! Another indicator that something new is very close. The channel is being cleared.
