The UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has reviewed Microsoft's plans for next-generation Xbox consoles.

The CMA’s final report on the Microsoft and Activision merger decision is filled with a lot of interesting information. In the section dedicated to the future of the cloud gaming market, the CMA states that it has seen internal information regarding Microsoft’s next-generation devices.

According to page 200 of the report, Microsoft set out its strategies regarding next-generation Xbox consoles back in September 2022, and the CMA has reviewed the plans.

In its 111-page response to the CMA’s statement of issues, Microsoft also indicated a possible release date for the new next-generation consoles — 2028.

These new Xbox consoles will be part of Microsoft’s Universal App Storefront, an ambitious new cross-ecosystem plan that will attempt to unify consoles, PCs, and mobile devices into a single cohesive framework. Exact details about the platform are not yet known, as important information has been redacted in the CMA report.
