Images of a white, all-digital Xbox Series X console have reportedly leaked
The console will launch this summer, it’s claimed
Images showing a white, all-digital Xbox Series X console have seemingly leaked.
The low quality images appear to show a white version of Microsoft’s existing console that’s similar in form apart from the removal of its disc drive.
eXputer reported last month that Microsoft was planning to launch a white, all-digital Xbox Series X console this summer.
Exputer has leaked the initial images of a diskless, white Xbox Series X.

It claimed the console will include a few upgraded components, such as an improved heatsink, but that elsewhere there will be no major enhancements.
It’s reportedly expected to retail for less than the current Xbox Series X console, which launched in November 2020 and has an ERP of $499.99, although it’s often available for significantly less.
Legal documents leaked last September potentially laid bare key elements of Microsoft’s gaming strategy for years to come, including plans to launch a redesigned, ”adorably all digital” Xbox Series X console codenamed ‘Brooklin’.
While its plans may have changed, according to the documents, the console was targeting a November 2024 launch and a $499 price point.
During a business update in February, Xbox confirmed that Series X/S won’t be the company’s last consoles.
“There’s some exciting stuff coming out in hardware that we’re going to share this holiday, and we’re also invested in the next generation roadmap,” said Xbox president Sarah Bond.
“And what we’re really focused on there is delivering the largest technical leap you will have ever seen in a hardware generation”.
