Leaked Xbox controller spoils Microsoft’s Xbox Series S announcement
- Microsoft has yet to announce the Xbox Series S, but a leaked controller features the name of the console on the packaging, spoiling the surprise ahead of the announcement.
- Rumors of a cheaper, less powerful next-gen Xbox have been spreading around the internet for months, but this is the most definitive proof we've seen.
- Microsoft is expected to officially reveal the Xbox Series S before the end of August.
We've been anxiously awaiting Microsoft's response to the PS5 Digital Edition ever since Sony revealed that it would be selling more than one next-generation console model this holiday season, but the cat may finally be out of the bag. On Sunday evening, photos of the new Xbox Wireless Controller packaging leaked online, and on the side of the box was a list of compatible devices. Here's what the first line on the box says: "Xbox Series X|S."
Rumors of an Xbox Series S have been floating around for months, and there had even been some compelling leaks that seemed to prove the console existed, but this is the most definitive evidence we have seen to date. Two months ago, I said that Microsoft needed to announce the console before it leaked, but now it's too late.
