- Microsoft could introduce new hardware this year, according to Windows Central
- The publication says it has heard “credible rumors” suggesting an OEM “Xbox” PC could be revealed in 2026.
- Windows Central warned that “time will tell” if this revelation will happen
A new report suggests that Microsoft plans to unveil the first look at new Xbox hardware this year, which would include its OEM Xbox PC.
According to Windows Central, there’s a chance we’ll see more “Xbox”-branded OEM hardware in 2026 that takes advantage of the full-screen Xbox experience on Windows, like the recently released Xbox Ally.
The publication claims it has been “working on some credible rumors” that we could see Microsoft unveil an OEM “Xbox” PC this year, despite the company’s low sales of the Xbox Series
It’s also important to note that while Windows Central has heard “credible rumors,” it warned that “time will tell” whether this revelation will be successful.
In addition to an OEM Xbox PC, Windows Central also said that, according to sources, the Xbox Elite Series 3 controller will be revealed in 2026, along with potential new controller revisions.
Rumors about the next Xbox console have been circulating for some time now, and in October, Xbox president Sarah Bond said that the next-gen Xbox will be a premium piece of hardware, suggesting it will be more like a PC console hybrid.
While Windows Central claims that new hardware could be revealed this year, additional rumors suggest that the Xbox, as well as the PS6, is aiming for a 2027 release.
