Microsoft CFO Seemingly Confirms November Release For Xbox Series X

4.4
This year has been a strange one to say the least. And to add to it, we are on the cusp of next generation console releases, but we still don’t know anything about the price or release date of either Sony’s PS5 or Microsoft’s Xbox Series X outside the fact that both plan to launch this year. Both companies seem to be playing chicken (or are terrified) in revealing those things, but we may have unexpectedly got an idea of when the next Xbox might release via the Microsoft CFO.

In a conference call, CFO Amy Hood was reportedly asked the question about when the “new console” would be coming, and Hood answered that it would be in November. To be exact, she said “November holidays.” The conference call is not open to public yet, but Dina Bass of Bloomsberg, who asked the question, reported it as you can see below.

November is, by no means, a surprise. Most people probably expected either that or October. There’s still the question of the rumored Lockhart/Series S and whether it will launch at the same time as the Series X or if it will come at a sooner or later time. The Xbox Series X Games Showcase is planned to come tomorrow, with the focus apparently only on games, so whether we’ll get that launch date announced or not is up in the air. Either way, it seems as if November it is.

They release their consoles in November anyway, But this is cool for us to know that they are sticking to the original month of release for people to save up their money or sort out their money to be able to purchase it.

They've released reach of the gens in November, so I doubt I would consider this a 'rush' since it fits the same time frame.

lol rushed what the hell are you on about lol, if it was releasing in 09/xx/2020 or 8/xx/2020 then it would be rushed.

november is normally when these new consoles launch anyways from what i noticed xbox novemeber 2001 xbox 360 november 2005 xbox one november 2013, hmm doesnt seem rushed to me seems to be fitting the time line perfectly, google all three gens and youll see the timeline is november, now sony rushed the ps4 a week before the one(the xbox one would been slayed anyways because failed marketing and advertising it as a tv box) if the ps4 release the same day.

so again its not rushed, since it would be way to late to release in december and way to early to release in the 9th month or 8th month

You 2 also need to read what I said. Obviously I know when consoles come out and when the new call of duty comes out. But we didn't have a global pandemic going on with millions out of work. That's why I said I think thinks are gonna be rushed and sloppy.

Makes no sense, you were probably a child when the ps4 and xbox one came out but they dropped in november as well buddy. November is the sweet spot because the holidays are right around the corner which means more $$$ for the companies

Definitely was paying taxes by then. Don't know why you would a something like that, kinda makes me think you are a jackass. But why I said rushed is because we have a ongoing pandemic most people are out of work or teleworking from home. You can't tell me that Microsoft or Sony is working up to standard. I've been teleworking for 5 months now. I wouldn't expect you to understand because you aren't a programmer and you nothing about it because you are probably 16. Use ur brain.
