    Default Xbox 720

    The long awaited next generation Xbox console will launch at E3 in 2013, according to new reports.

    Develop claims to have been told by that multiple sources, from chip manufacturers to middleware firms, to expect the console to arrive at the gaming expo in June 2013.

    The heavily-touted Xbox 720, or whatever Microsoft eventually likes to call it. has been the subject of much speculation in 2011.

    Develop says that Microsoft is likely to focus on pushing the current model, Kinect and Windows Phone for the next two Christmasses before pushing the next console in 2013.

    Fable Next to headline new line-up

    The site also claims to have the scoop on one of the launch titles, with Lionhead Studios working on another addition to the Fable series, codenamed Fable Next.

    Interestingly, one of the site's sources still asserts that EA has a prototype version of the new console for testing purposes. EA has previously rubbished the claim.

    News that the new Microsoft console may not arrive until 2013 will be a huge boon for Nintendo, which will have at least a year to push the Wii U before the news Xbox arrives.

    A number of Microsoft employees have announced that they are working on a next-gen Xbox, giving the game away on their LinkedIn pages.

    According to WinRumors, which got its information from games blog Gematsu, three employees have announced they are working in the next-gen console department.

    The first is someone who has been given the title Xbox Nex Gen Creative Director.

    There's also another who has revealed he is "providing groundwork an [sic] integration for branding elements for next-gen Xbox on all forms of media. Ranging from print to UI across future releases of the Xbox platform."

    Next gen

    Finally, one employee has said he is working on "high speed data buses to prevent electromagnetic interference in next-gen devices."

    Intriguing stuff, and all pointing to the fact that the Xbox 720 is being worked on right now.

    Just last week there were leaks of the new Xbox 360 dashboard, which reveals an updated Metro design and a whole host of home entertainment goodies.

    Given that all of the LinkedIn posts point to a next-gen console in the works, we are filing this rumour as Very Likely.

    And how do we know it's going to be called "Xbox 720"?

    Title of the thread should just be like "Next-Gen Xbox" or something, as the name for it hasn't even been confirmed by anyone.

    Coming up with another name would require imagination.

    As it's Microsoft, 98% of it being called Xbox 720 :p

    Of course people will buy the next Xbox, people will buy the next PlayStation. It will probably have newer and better hardware, new design and god know what else Microsoft are thinking. Plus if the date is right, it would come out sometime in 2013.

    Haha, they took a while to confirm the actual name of the next version of Windows. But that's another story!

    Well look at it this way, it first came out back in 2005 and now we are in 2011. Regardless of the newer versions they came out which just makes the sales go up even more as that's what they do these days and release "refresh" models if you want to call them that.

    So 2013-2015 is probably the right time for them to bring out the next-generation version of Xbox.

    So it was pointless you upgrading from a Windows 95 computer to a new Windows 7 computer was it? Same scenario.
