Xbox handheld due in 2025
Xbox handheld due in 2025, next-gen console for 2027
Xbox’s new hardware plans begin with a gaming handheld set for later this year, with full next-gen consoles targeting 2027
A new report has outlined Microsoft’s video game hardware ambition, alleging a full next-gen Xbox is set for 2027 and an Xbox-branded gaming handheld is due out later in 2025.
According to Windows Central, the tech giant is working with a PC gaming manufacturer to create a branded device that will look “unmistakably Xbox.” This handheld, currently codenamed ‘Keenan,’ is expected to run the Windows OS and Steam, and will prioritize the Microsoft Store and PC Game Pass.
Microsoft is yet to comment on the report, however its gaming executives have spoken publicly about both devices in vague terms across various interviews. In January, Jason Ronald, Microsoft’s VP of ‘Next Generation,’ told The Verge that the company plans to combine Xbox and Windows experiences together for PC gaming handhelds made by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), otherwise known as third-party hardware manufacturers. Existing PC gaming OEMs include Asus, Lenovo, and Razer. Keenan does not relate to a first-party Xbox handheld, which Microsoft gaming boss Phil Spencer recently indicated is years away.
