Microsoft have announced a new more powerful console known only as Project Scorpio — one which features 8 CPU cores, 320GB/sec memory bandwidth as well as 6 teraflops of processing power.
Project Scorpio titles will be entirely compatible with Xbox One and Xbox One S titles, allowing for a broader range of interconnectivity between the consoles meaning “no-one gets left behind”. Project Scorpio also boasts 4K gameplay running at 60Hz as well as high-power support for virtual reality devices. Phil Spencer said the company is announcing Scorpio now as to allow developers to build powerful and rich games for the console’s launch.
