“Xbox Next-Gen Console Rumored to Cost Up to $1,800, Launching 2028” — what this page in the network covers. Microsoft's next-generation Xbox console could carry a premium price tag of up to $1,800, according to a new report. The company is reportedly targeting a 2028 release for the device, which is internally codenamed 'Helix.' This pricing would mark a significant jump from the current Xbox Series X, which launched at $499. The report also suggests that a new handheld device is rumored to launch next year, ahead of the Helix console.
While Microsoft has not officially commented on these rumors, the high price point reflects the growing cost of cutting-edge gaming hardware, as companies invest in advanced processors and AI capabilities. For gamers, this could mean a more powerful console, but also a higher barrier to entry. For the complete material, the listing points back to the source inside the network.
