Following yesterday's news about Xbox's next-gen strategy and how they're partnering with AMD on future hardware, we decided to update our big next Xbox console guide to provide an all-in-one roundup of what we know so far.
And you know what? We'd forgotten that at the bottom of the guide, there's a poll that originated back in January, asking Pure Xbox readers when they think the next Xbox console is going to come out. The poll currently sits at 32% for 2026 and 31% for 2027, although it's changed a lot because of how the rumours have evolved in recent months.
There was a time when the rumours were suggesting 2026 was a big possibility, for example, but recent rumours have suggested 2027 is more likely. The reality is that nobody knows for sure what Microsoft is planning behind the scenes.
