Microsoft is working on an updated version of the Xbox gaming console. The South Korean Radio Research Agency (RRA) recently certified the new Xbox Development Kit (XDK) for testing. Typically, such certificates precede the launch of a new product by several months. In the case of the Xbox 360, certification came only a month before its release.

XDK console, model name: 2089 (2024.03.18, new) XDK console, model name: 1881 (06/11/2020) Xbox 360 game development console, model name: Xbox 360 XDK (2005.10.18)
Despite a large number of assumptions, it is unknown what exactly this console could be. Various sources and leaks suggest a refurbished Xbox Series X in all white with no disc support or a rumored portable version of the Xbox. It could also be an all-digital Xbox Series X or even an Xbox Series Pro. All that is known is the code name of the new device – Xbox Series X “Brooklin”. However, it is unlikely that Microsoft will announce a next-generation console. According to the company, it should be expected no earlier than 2026.
The last time a hardware update was officially commented on by Xbox Vice President Sarah Bond was in February: “There will be some exciting things coming to the hardware that we are going to share during the holidays.” The photo above shows the current version of XDK. It is unknown what the new kit or new console will look like.
Xbox 5th generation will likely be released in 2026 and will use AMD's RDNA5 and ZEN5 architectures
