There have been a lot of rumors circulating about the “Xbox Scarlett,” which is the codename for Microsoft’s next-generation console. Now, there is a new rumor that the Xbox Scarlett release date could be as soon as 2020.
When is the Xbox Scarlett Release Date?
Express.co.uk reports that this rumor comes from a solid source—Brad Sams of Thurott.com. Sams has been reliable in the past, so there is every reason to take him seriously when he claims that the Xbox Scarlett will release in 2020.
Along with the possible release date, Sams offered up some other insider information as well. He says that we can expect the console to feature next-gen GPU tech from AMD along with the Zen 2 CPU.
The PlayStation 5 is also expected to release around the same 2020 timeframe (though some estimate it may come out late in 2019 or possibly in 2021). So that is another reason why this release date makes sense.
There has not been a whole lot of concrete information revealed about the Xbox Scarlett yet. But as we get closer to 2020, we can expect Microsoft to be more forthcoming with information.
