Microsoft released a brand new press release about the arrival of the next generation of Xbox. The Xbox One Series X is claimed by the head of Xbox Phil Spencer to be extremely capable, innovative, and consumer-friendly.

By implementing these new additions to Xbox One Series X, Microsoft plans to build a “lifelike, immersive, responsive and surprising” which will be nothing like we’ve ever seen before, the author is relatively certain that everyone will hold them to that promise.

In addition to the variety of games that will be available on Xbox One X, Spencer also spoke of some network-optimizing features such as the minimized latency provided by Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) and a new tool called “Dynamic Latency Input (DLI)”, the two new additions combined should theoretically solve most if not all of the existing network problems in the current generation of Xbox console.
Finally, improvements regarding player’s control over the video game software has been added on the list of improvements made with the next generation console. The new Xbox will feature wireless controllers which has its size and shape refined in order to fit palms of various shapes and sizes.
