Next-Gen Xbox Project Helix Won't Get Much New Info In Today's Event, Exec Says
Xbox executive Jason Ronald confirmed that more details about the next-generation hybrid device, codenamed Project Helix, will be revealed later this year, potentially during the Xbox Games Showcase in June. An upcoming Xbox Game Dev Update event will recap GDC announcements for developers, focusing on how Project Helix, powered by a custom AMD SoC and next-gen DirectX, will benefit them. While developer systems are slated to ship in 2027, Microsoft has not yet announced a consumer launch timeline due to factors like AI-fueled memory and chip shortages impacting pricing and availability.
