Microsoft spent the first half of March sharing details about the Xbox Series X we’d been waiting months for, but in the weeks since, the company has gone dark. Other than the surreptitious reveal of the console’s logo on Wednesday, we haven’t learned much more about the next Xbox lately, but recent interviews conducted by Windows Central provide some interesting context about the features that Microsoft announced last month.
The whole piece is worth a read, but we’re going to focus on the interview with The Coalition’s technical director Mike Rayner, who was on the team that made Gears 5 for Xbox One and PC. We keep hearing about how the addition of a solid-state drive (SSD) will be one of the biggest technological leaps of the next generation, but Rayner helps explain just how much of a difference the new technology makes on a game like Gears 5.
