Xbox Two will come before PS5
The report was confirmed by Microsoft Xbox division head Phil Spencer in an official statement. "I fully expect that you'll see another console from us [...] Our best customers are Xbox console customers, and I want to keep those people engaged both on the Xbox One and anything we might do in the future. I'm 100% committed to that." Spencer told Tech Radar.
According to N4BB, there is reason to believe that Microsoft may even launch the Xbox Two at least one year earlier that Sony's next console, the PlayStation 5.
The confirmation of the release of the Xbox Two follows the noise surrounding the announcement of the development of the PlayStation 5, which is pegged for a 2020 launch, and the anticipation of the Nintendo NX, which users may see in the months to come.
With the rise of Smart TV's and 4k resolution, Xbox Two will reportedly have support to make playing games in 4k resolution possible. The Xbox One currently does not have the capacity for 4k resolution yet. It is also further believed that the upcoming Microsoft gaming console will have backwards compatibility for games released for Xbox One.
Also most discussed is the plans of PlayStation to render discs obsolete for its next gaming console, and reports indicate that Xbox Two may be doing the same as well. Games will most probably be distributed via online stores by the time the next batch of consoles are released.
Microsoft and Sony have long been in a battle for supremacy in the gaming industry. Official sales estimates indicate that Sony has distributed 30.2 million consoles in total, whereas Xbox trails behind with 10 million units.

Good move. If ps4 came out first everybody wouldn't be willing to wait for the xbox two due to the way the xbox one turned out.

Jweezyishea Do any of you realise that most likely by then... 4k resolution will be looked at like 1080p is now?
i just hope they will be able to run games good on 4k. Right now both consoles struggle to hit 1080p.

In my opinion, the next Xbox won't be called the "Xbox Two". I actually think it might have two other possible names. Xbox Next or Xbox 720. I know the Xbox One was thought to be named the 720. This is my reasoning. The original Xbox was just called Xbox, the next one was the Xbox 360, now we have the Xbox One. Going by this, one can assume that the next Xbox will be a numbered one, not a worded one. Perhaps the 2nd generation Xbox after the current one will be the Xbox Two.
