Next-generation Xbox can probably be upgraded

Well, or downgrade - there's someone that. In general, there was no official data from representatives of the Redmond corporation, but users of one forum found a patent from 2010. This patent describes the ability to add different hardware nodes to the gaming platform. In addition, a leak has recently occurred, which resulted in a 56-page document that went online with some details about the next-generation Xbox.

Thus, it describes the possibility of updating the hardware of the game console. It is worth noting that one of the authors of the patent is Jeff Andrews, one of the leading designers at Microsoft. So really all these details indicate that the company is seriously considering the possibility of creating a gaming console with variable hardware.

Of course, all this can only be a coincidence, and a patent can only be a regular patent. But such coincidences are very often a reliable indication of the future of a device. In addition, some journalists believe that the company is now trying to create a console, whose life cycle will be even longer than that of the Xbox 360 (10 years). The idea, in general, is similar to the upgrade of an ordinary personal computer.

But there are some differences. So, the next generation Xbox will be something like a system to which you can connect various modules that expand the capabilities of the device. And it will be not only external devices, like Kinect or various kinds of manipulators, but also functional units of the platform itself.

A game console of a new generation has long been expected by gamers. The same success in fundraising achieved by the developers of the Ouya Android console shows that gamers are hungry for new products.
