Earlier this week, Microsoft scored another point in its console marketing war with Sony. After unveiling the Xbox Series X name and design in mid-December, and announcing most of the gaming rig’s specs in mid-February, Microsoft on Monday came out swinging with a flurry of announcements. Almost everything about the Series X was revealed, including details that were kept secret a month ago. We got the entire specs sheet and new Xbox demos that highlight some of the console’s key features. We learned the console will have an excellent feature to help with storage needs beyond the built-in 1TB super-fast SSD, and Microsoft revealed the new Wireless Controller in full.
We’ve been saying for weeks that Sony has to match Microsoft’s console announcements, and Sony, on Tuesday, finally announced the date for the full PS5 event. It’s on March 18th that PS5 to lead system architect Mark Cerny “will provide a deep dive into PS5’s system architecture, and how it will shape the future of games.”
