Microsoft’s plans for a next-generation Xbox have been revealed in a leaked document from the FTC v. Microsoft court battle. The system would be a hybrid game platform, combining local hardware and cloud computing to create an “immersive game & app platform” arriving around 2028. The system would feature next-gen DirectX raytracing, dynamic global illumination, ML based super resolution, micropolygon rendering optimization and more. AI and machine learning would be heavily used for performance, game experiences, player services, and game testing.
