AMD CEO Lisa Su Hints Next Gen Xbox Launch Could Be 2027

AMD’s chief executive, Lisa Su, hinted on an earnings call today that Microsoft’s next-generation Xbox console may launch in 2027, with the system to be powered by custom AMD chips. In a brief comment, Su stated that the development of Microsoft’s next-gen Xbox is progressing well and is likely to support a launch date in 2027. While Su did not confirm the exact timeline, her statement suggests that AMD is on track to deliver the necessary hardware for the console. The news comes after Microsoft confirmed last year that it is working with AMD to develop its next-generation Xbox console, which will feature an AMD semi-custom System-on-Chip (SoC). The partnership between the two companies includes a strategic multi-year agreement that aims to bring high-performance computing and advanced graphics capabilities to the gaming industry.
