Microsoft's Xbox Series X and S consoles are nearing their five-year anniversary, with new models released in 2024. However, the company's strategy of releasing previously exclusive games on other platforms has diminished excitement for the next generation of Xbox hardware. Upcoming titles like Indiana Jones and Forza Horizon 5 will be available on the PS5, further reducing the appeal of new Xbox consoles. The Xbox Game Pass service continues to grow, especially among PC users, while Xbox hardware sales have dropped significantly. Despite the potential for performance upgrades in future consoles, the trend of multi-platform releases raises questions about the future of Xbox hardware. Microsoft has not announced details about the next generation, leaving uncertainty about its direction.
