Microsoft's Jason Ronald is Director of Project Management on Xbox Series X, and is also known for being the guy with that massive beard. He doesn't tweet all that often, but last night, he provided some more insight into Team Xbox and how plans are progressing for the Xbox Series X.
Noting how hard the Xbox team is continuing to work throughout the coronavirus pandemic, Ronald also hinted at some of the new demos and "surprises" he's seen this week:
We're not going to read too much into this for now, but it's certainly telling that both Phil Spencer and Jason Ronald have commented on upcoming Xbox plans over the past few days. It definitely seems like they're gearing up for something soon... let's hope we won't have to wait too much longer!
What do you make of Jason Ronald's comments? Let us know down below.

Cool Perfect Dark and Forza Motorsport demos? But I want Banjo-Kazooie and Fable too.
Rumours of some online shows for May and June have been circulating for a while now and as we don't have 'confirmed' titles from numerous studio's, I am sure we will hear something soon and not surprised that MS are gearing up for a big couple of months.
We know Halo is coming and of course Forza will too after it was postponed last year. Hellblade 2 is coming as well and no doubt we will get some updates for existing titles - a Smart Delivery upgrade for Gears 5 and Minecraft which has to be in the works based on the information we have seen already. Minecraft RT for example and we have heard how Gears 5 runs without any 'optimisation' on 'ultra' settings after a few weeks. No doubt they will be working on incorporating Series X features (ray tracing?) and more optimising for the Series X. Of course some will be looking more for 'new' titles to be announced but some of the existing titles could well be like playing a 'new' game - especially if you are coming from the OG/S XB1. Its more of a remaster than some remasters that have been released LOL
I am ready whenever you're Microsoft.
Never knew my push square login was the same on here lol.
On topic, with this coronavirus I'm finding it easier to save money as I don't like touching it. Most of it goes towards disposable gloves and antibacterial wipes when I can find some. Hopefully I'll be able to save enough for an Xbox series X by the time it comes out. Then I can see if it can run more demanding mods on Skyrim (thanks to backwards compatibility) as my Fatbox One can't handle all my favourite ones at the same time.
New surprises? Like bringing Fable back?
@BlueOcean
I totally forgot about fable!!
Played the first one only, what a great and addictive Game that was.
Perfect dark, Killer Instinct, Conker, banjo & kazooie, Halo, Gears of war.
These are games i want. At least killer instinct.
@The-Chosen-one Yeah, I want them back as well. Lots of awesome Rare franchises there.
@TrueAssassin86x Does it matter here? This is a site dedicated to Xbox so its not really the place to discuss Sony. The 'only' catching up they may 'need' is getting the information out to the public and could have an impressive line up of games coming in the first 6months. So far Sony has not confirmed any of their own games - although it looks like the Last of Us 2 could be a 'launch' game now - even if it does come to PS4 as well.
