Coronavirus Could Delay the Launch of Microsoft's Powerful New Xbox
Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) broke out more specs for its next-generation Xbox hardware on Monday, and the system will likely be the most-powerful video game console ever when it releases. The Xbox Series X is slated to launch this holiday season, but manufacturing issues stemming from the novel coronavirus outbreak could mean that it misses the targeted launch window.
The Series X will feature a graphics processing unit (GPU) built by AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) and use the processing specialist's RDNA 2.0 technology. The latest specs suggest the console will be very powerful, but sourcing the high-end tech could be challenging as COVID-19-related issues disrupt supply chains.
