Xbox Series X Is Now Set To Come To Us This November

Xbox Series X

The release month for the Xbox Series X is now set down for all of us Xbox gamers to have a bit more of a goal to look for

If you have been tired of just hearing that the Xbox Series X is coming out this Holiday Season, you can now sit back and be glad that is mostly going away now. Thankfully, the system has not been delayed out at all but now we have a release month to look at for the system. Not the biggest of surprises, as it is usually par the course, it looks like the Xbox Series X will be hitting us in November of this year. When in November? That is still up in the air but we do know it will be here in that part of the season. Not shocking at all and I am sure we can assume it will come closer to the end of the month at that.

All of this comes from the source directly in the latest update for the Xbox Series X from Microsoft after they dropped a bit more of the updates for the console and a few titles. It does seem odd to have such a large update for just giving us a month to look for, but it is something. There is no price point even hinted at here either, but we have a few months to start planning to pick it all up here. Given the comparisons to the PCs out there it might be something to help us gauge where we should be saving for but that is purely speculation at this point. Either way, November is the month now as many have suspected since it was first announced.

Xbox Series X Launches This November With Thousands Of Games Spanning Four Generations

Today, we announced updates to Halo Infinite’s launch timing (2021 now). Our vision at Xbox and 343 Industries has always been to deliver the most ambitious Halo game ever for our fans, while also balancing the team’s well-being. To do that, we will need some more time to finish the critical work necessary to launch Halo Infinite, which will come in 2021.

We have plenty to keep you busy until Chief arrives: There will be thousands of games to play, spanning four generations, when Xbox Series X launches globally this November and over 100 optimized for Xbox Series X titles, built to take full advantage of our most powerful console, are planned for this year. And with brand new console features like hardware-accelerated Direct X raytracing, framerates up to 120 frames per second, faster loading times, and Quick Resume for multiple games, playing will look and feel better, no matter which games you choose to play on day one.

  • More than 50 new games planned for this year across generations and optimized for Xbox Series X, including Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Dirt 5, Gears Tactics, Yakuza: Like A Dragon, and Watch Dogs: Legion.

A shared library of great games through Xbox Game Pass

Hundreds of developers are at work on new games for Xbox Series X that will raise the bar for fidelity, speed, and immersion; and the best way to discover new games will be with Xbox Game Pass. Game Pass delivers a curated library of content across console and PC, including all games from Xbox Game Studios the day they launch, for one low monthly price.

Experiences you expect on Xbox consoles such as your friends list, achievements, controller settings and saved game progress all come with you when you play on mobile.

Play thousands of games across four generations of content

Playing your favorite games and franchises across four generations of Xbox was a key tenet for us in the next generation of console gaming. This commitment means that you will have access to thousands of titles across four generations of content – from Xbox, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.

Our back compat team continues to develop new innovations that can be applied to a curated list of titles that will enhance them even further than was possible when they were originally created. These optimizations include the ability to render titles with increased resolutions up to 4K, delivering new HDR reconstruction techniques to games that were developed years before HDR came into existence, applying anisotropic filtering to improve image quality, and creating ways to increase or double the frame rate of certain titles.

Whether you’ve played for years or have just recently picked up a controller, we can’t wait for you to see and feel the first big step into gaming’s next generation with Xbox Series X this November.
