Rumor: New Xbox Console Leaked

According to a new rumor, Microsoft could be preparing to release a brand-new white version of the Xbox Series X that will be digital-only.

Exputer's report claims that this new Xbox console will include an improved heatsink and upgraded Nexus card. If this console exists and is releasing this summer as Exputer's sources have indicated, then one has to imagine that the reveal will be happening sooner rather than later.

After all, Microsoft has teased that it has big plans for hardware this year.

In the Xbox Business Update event, which aimed to address the rumors about the company's multi-platform plans, it was teased that Xbox has an exciting new hardware release dropping this holiday season. If the leaked all-white Xbox
