Four New Xbox Consoles Are In The Works At Microsoft
This news comes from well known Microsoft insider Brad Sams at Thurott. He divides the new Xbox projects under the Scarlett banner, which includes all next generation Xbox projects, and the non Scarlett ones.
Half the consoles are meant to be part of the current Xbox One line: one is named “Maverick”, and is a disc-less, streaming only console. I’m assuming it will be the flagship product for the xCloud initiative, but it is due out before the Scarlett products launch. Even before it launches, however, is a revised Xbox One S—this will be compatible with xCloud, but still include a disc drive, be slimmer, and also cheaper.
As for the Scarlett consoles, there are two: one is “Anaconda”, which we have spoken of recently. Anaconda is meant to be like the Xbox One X, a high end machine meant for gaming enthusiasts. The other is Lockhart, a cheaper, Xbox One S style option meant as the mass market mover. As of right now, both are expected to launch in 2020.
It is important to remember that though the source these rumors come from is known for being accurate, these are still just that—rumors. For now, treat them as such. But if there is even a kernel of truth to them, it sounds like the future of the Xbox platform is going to be very exciting.

coolbunny1234 Sounds terribly stupid, especially if the Anaconda is similar to the One X - there's zero incentive to upgrade for One X owners.
I'm pretty sure they're saying that the style of upgrade is similar to an Xbox one X. (It will bring out as much power as a 2020 high end gaming PC)

The 'Anaconda' one will certainly be interesting to see what sort of specs it can bring!

I hope they aren't doing too much at once. It could screw them over in the end. I don't want another half ass console full of problems and features that aren't added until years after release and other features that helped sell the console are taken away.

I dont know why they keep trying to make so many different consoles. Eventually console will come to an end when they keep making these new generations and making us purchase the same game over and over. Thats a big reason why i switched to PC.
