There have been multiple stories about how Xbox isn't abandoning its hardware division (including claims several projects have actually been greenlit), and with this in mind, a reportedly "new" Xbox development kit has been certified in South Korea.

As highlighted by 'Xbox News for Koreans' on social media (via VGC), a new development kit has been approved for use by the South Korean National Radio Research Agency. Here's a look at the official documentation:

VGC further notes how it's been "manufactured in China and Vietnam" and "carries model number 2089". The interesting part is that the Xbox Series X development kit (featuring model number 1881) was certified by this same agency just five months before its official launch back in November 2020.

Xbox already had a massive leak last September, when an all-digital Series X codenamed "Brooklin" that was potentially targeting a "late 2024" release surfaced online in some FTC leaks. Xbox later on suggested it was subject to change.

The latest update has also surfaced alongside rumours about a 'PS5 Pro' launching this year and a claim last month that Xbox would be releasing a "white, all-digital Series X this summer". Things are getting interesting now!

If we hear any updates about this supposedly new development kit, we'll let you know.
