Microsoft is working on a next-generation platform, but Xbox Game Studios is actively involved in the development of Project Helix.
Previously, the company confirmed the creation of a hybrid Xbox and PC, but now it has become known that the project involves not only the engineering division. Game studios are deeply involved in the process, which is good news for players.
Matt Booty revealed the details in a new episode of the Official Xbox Podcast. He noted that internal teams are connected to the project from an early stage and participate not only in shaping the overall concept, but also in discussing the planning and specifications of the device. In other words, developers do not receive ready-made "hardware" at the very end, but create it together with engineers.
Booty emphasized that this distinguishes Xbox: the teams responsible for games and "hardware" work "side by side" in the same structure. He added that as soon as the device begins to take shape, the studios are among the first to gain access to it – and in the case of Project Helix, the process is already underway. It looks like next-generation games are already being created.
This means that the new platform will be adapted from the very beginning to the real tasks of developers and future projects.
Microsoft also emphasizes that Xbox Project Helix will be a premium device and a link between the console and PC.
