Jez Corden of the Xbox Two podcast claims that Microsoft is working on a portable version of the Xbox console. He also claims that this is not a cloud device, but a real portable console.
“I know (Xbox) has handheld prototypes right now… No, it's not a cloud-based handheld, it's a completely native Xbox handheld.”
Corden explained that these are new prototypes and not the old devices that are often mentioned. Prototypes don't necessarily mean new products are coming to market, but Xbox is still developing a handheld console.
Earlier, in the official podcast, Xbox President Sarah Bond spoke in particular about immediate plans: “There’s more to come. There are some cool things coming up in hardware that we're going to be sharing this holiday season. We are also investing in the next generation roadmap. What we're really focused on is delivering the biggest technical leap you've ever seen in a hardware generation, making it better for players and creators.”
The Nintendo Switch has sold over 100 million copies since its launch, and now that Steam Deck, ROG Ally, and even PlayStation Portal have hit the market in the last few years, similar Xbox plans seem very likely. The release of portable devices is a good idea to raise funds against the background of the general stagnation of the console market. It is unknown when Xbox will announce the Xbox Portable. Various sources have suggested that it could be similar to the Nintendo Switch.
