Xbox Reveal Event: Liveblog

 

The wait is finally over. The speculation can cease. Microsoft are about to spill the beans on everything next Xbox.

Over two years in the making, let’s find out what all this is together.

new to old

Microsoft are already rolling out the new stuff, even if this one was a little under the radar. As reported by GameInformer earlier today and as some of the more eagle eyed among you may have noticed, there was a slight change to the Xbox logo on the site.

Could this possibly be the new Xbox logo? It would tie in nicely with the rumors that the next Xbox is going to be titled simply ‘Xbox’. Not long to now till we no for sure!
