Periodically, rumors of varying degrees of doom surface online regarding the future of Xbox. Unspecified sources speculate on the future of Microsoft's gaming division, making predictions that, despite everything, gain a certain resonance. Evidently, the substantial Game Pass price increase last week provided an all-too-tempting opportunity to once again spread misinformation.


Yes, There Will Be a New Console After Xbox Series X|S

One rumor that seems particularly popular is that Xbox will exit the console hardware market: it has resurfaced on multiple occasions over the past 20 years and has recently gained traction again. This sounds rather peculiar, considering that the same rumor was denied not long ago by Xbox President herself, Sarah Bond, who assured that there would be a new Xbox console after Series X|S.


The New Denial

The rumor has received a further denial: an Xbox spokesperson (via Windows Central) confirms Microsoft's commitment to the future production of consoles and gaming devices. Moreover, it is well known that Microsoft recently entered into a multi-year agreement with AMD for the supply of chips for future generations of gaming hardware.
