White Xbox Series X without disc drive set for summer release

Feb 24, 2024 11:24 AM

Upcoming Xbox Series X Model: A new, disc-drive-less version of the Xbox Series X is reportedly set to release in the summer of this year, according to sources cited by Exputer. The rumored white Xbox Series X will feature an improved cooling system and Nexus card, but will retain most of the features of the current model, except for lacking a disc drive. Internal Microsoft documents that were revealed during the Microsoft and Federal Trade Commission court case last year had previously depicted a disc-less Xbox Series X with a cylindrical design. The company has yet to officially confirm the existence of this new console model.

What changes can be expected in the new Xbox Series X model?

The new Xbox Series X model is rumored to offer an improved cooling system and Nexus card while removing the disc drive. The exterior color will also change to white, but other specifications are expected to remain similar to the current model.

The Xbox Series X, first released in November 2020, is Microsoft's flagship console, offering high-fidelity gaming with powerful hardware capable of up to 4K resolution and 120Hz refresh rates. It is part of the fourth generation of Xbox consoles, competing directly with Sony's PlayStation 5. This new iteration, if confirmed, represents Microsoft's continuing effort to offer various options to meet different consumer preferences, including those who prefer digital-only content and possibly a lower price point by removing the disc drive.
