With there no end in sight to Microsoft games making their way to the PS5 and other consoles, I'm less excited than ever for the Xbox Series X follow-up.

Microsoft has reportedly set a release window for its next generation of Xbox consoles: 2027. The Xbox Series X|S successor will arrive after a long-rumoured Xbox handheld device later this year, according to a recent report from Windows Central. The publication says that the next-gen console is “fully in production.”

I understand the Xbox work that has hit the headlines this week is actually called Project Kennan, not Keenan. I’m told that Kennan is the codename for a handheld that is being manufactured by Asus, and it’s part of a larger effort from Microsoft to unify Windows and Xbox towards a universal library of Xbox and PC games.
