We already know that the next-generation Xbox console will not be tied to a single store, will use an AMD chip, and will maintain compatibility with the existing Xbox game library. Now, Microsoft hints that the new Xbox may become a hybrid console and PC. Xbox head Sarah Bond shared insights about the new portable device Xbox Ally X in an interview with Mashable and hinted at the upcoming console. Responding to rumors that the next Xbox resembles a gaming PC more, she confirmed this idea by saying, "I can say that you are right, the next console will be very premium and high-end, with a carefully crafted experience." Bond added that some of the ideas are already being implemented in the portable device, but she does not want to reveal everything. For over a year, she has emphasized that the next Xbox will resemble a PC more, and the Xbox Ally device is an early glimpse into the future. Her words confirm the promises to create an "Xbox experience that is not tied to a single store or device," with a focus on Windows. "We are working closely with the Windows team to ensure this platform is the best for gaming," Bond said in June, announcing a multi-year partnership with AMD regarding the Xbox device portfolio. The next-generation console is expected to run on Windows and become part of the ecosystem of third-party manufacturers that Microsoft considers Xbox consoles. The portable device Xbox Ally X, priced at $1000, tests interest in expensive next-generation consoles and may be the first step towards merging Xbox and Windows. Perhaps this is what Bond means when she says that the new Xbox will bring "the biggest technological breakthrough in a generation of hardware."
