An insider with the nickname TheGhostOfHope, who mainly publishes leaks about Call of Duty, claims that the next-gen Xbox console «will be released in 2026 and will be called Xbox Prime.»
As reported by Insider Gaming, it is currently unclear whether Prime is the official name or if it is a codename.
TheGhostOfHope added that Infinity Ward’s next Call of Duty game, likely Modern Warfare 4, will be released alongside the new console. According to the insider, the release of the next-gen Xbox is «almost an open secret in the industry.»
TheGhostOfHope is experienced in publishing leaks about the Call of Duty franchise and is known to have sources within Activision’s development teams and studios working on Call of Duty. Since the company is now owned by Microsoft, it’s likely that he got the information from a developer working on the next Call of Duty in 2026.
As of September 2024, the Xbox Series S|X has sold 29.64 million units, half the number of PlayStation 5 units, which has sold around 60 million.
Previously, CEO of GSC Game World and game director of STALKER 2 Yevgeny Grigorovich said that the Xbox Series S|X consoles have a significant hardware advantage over PC, which made it easier to optimize the game.
