Microsoft has unveiled the Project
Scorpio gaming console. It's officially dubbed Xbox One X. The console offers 6
teraflops of power, and features an 8-core custom AMD CPU (clocked at 2.3 GHz). The
console "uses advanced liquid cooling and the supercharger-style
centrifugal fan to ensure it stays cool," the company says.
The Xbox One X comes with 8GB flash memory, and 1TB storage.
There's also an UHD Blu-ray optical disc drive for 4K stuff. Wireless
capabilities include WiFi, Bluetooth, and IR. Design-wise, Microsoft says it's
the "smallest console we’ve ever made."
There will be a total of 22 "console launch
exclusives," including titles like Crackdown 3, Forza Motorsport 7, and
Sea of Thieves. The console is priced at US$ 499 (£ 449, € 499, CAD 599, and AUD
649), and will be available for purchase starting November 7.
