Microsoft’s Next-Gen Console Was Codenamed “Anaconda”

Jez Corden from Windows Central reported on Twitter that, according to some sources, the next-gen Xbox development kit was codenamed “Anaconda.” If that’s indeed correct, it means that Microsoft respected its tradition to codename its consoles using reptile names. For example, the Xbox One was nicknamed “Durango,” while Xbox One X was called “Chuckwalla.”

But that’s not all we got on the future Xbox Scarlett, Microsoft’s next-gen console. Also according to some recent Xbox Scarlett leaks, the next-gen video games console would come out with some astonishing specifications.

Xbox Scarlett Leaks Revealed That The Console Might Boast AMD Zen 2 Architecture

Although next-generation consoles have not been announced, we know that both Microsoft and Sony are working on Xbox Scarlett and PlayStation 5, respectively. Both will again bet on AMD CPU and GPU, according to the recent leaks. Now, Xbox Scarlett leaks revealed more details on the next-gen console from Microsoft.

Although Xbox One and PS4 appear to be recent, a sensation caused by the launch of intergenerational consoles such as Xbox One X and PS4 Pro, this is really a generation of five years old. The current-gen consoles, released in 2013 in their initial models, are already starting to show symptoms of exhaustion, and both Americans and Japanese companies are working on the next-generation video games consoles.

All rumors point to a presentation of PS5 in 2019, a console that will assemble AMD Zen architecture, rather than the outdated Jaguar that the console currently carries. Microsoft already confirmed that it was working on new consoles, one of them with the code name “Xbox Scarlett,” as well as another machine that would be focused on streaming games.

Xbox Scarlett Would Boast AMD Zen 2 Architecture

Now, thanks to new Xbox Scarlett leaks from Brad Sams, one of the most famous insiders specializing in Microsoft rumors, we have the first details on the next-gen console from Microsoft. According to Sams, Xbox Scarlett would launch in 2020, and the console would be built with AMD Zen 2 architecture.

With AMD Zen 2 architecture, the new Xbox Scarlett would be able to play games at 4K and 60 frames per second. The current Xbox One X already achieves that in some games, so we imagine that they refer to 4K and 60 frames at best possible quality and without having to choose between resolution and frames per second, as currently happens in games like Forza Horizon 4.

The E3 2019 could be the ideal date for the presentation of the new Xbox Scarlett, especially since Sony announced that it will not participate at the next year’s event.

What is the Future of PlayStation 5 and Xbox Scarlett and Who will Change it?

A new technology called game streaming might change the whole game industry and here is why.

Local content vs game-streaming

If you are a beginner, streaming games will not make you get a gaming hardware and spend hundreds of cash on it.

Yourhas the necessary hardware which can display the streamed games so you will not need huge hard drives, high-powered graphics card or processors as a way to store games.

Nvidia GeForce Now

Even though Nvidia’s GeForce Now is only in beta and it keeps upgrading, we still have the assurance that it might become official soon.

GeForce Now has the ability to support over 300 games at the moment and if you want you can also make your own additions from Uplay library and Steam, and you will be able to benefit from all your games.

At the moment of being, you do not have to pay anything to use GeForce Now, but you need to pay for your games on Steam. When the service will no longer be on beta, you might have to pay a sum.

PlayStation Now

Sony has developed a game-streaming service called PlayStation Now which was mostly created for PlayStation 4, but you can also use it on your PC if you get a compatible controller.

The PlayStation Now game-streaming service is no longer available on Sony Smart TVs, PlayStation 3, PlayStation TV, and PlayStation Vita.

Without access to Steam or similar services, PlayStationNow does pretty well alone as it has a wide range of games kept in its library. You can choose from over 600 games along with other new ones added month by month.

These two game-streaming services might steal PlayStation 5 and Xbox Scarlett’s bread.
