New Xbox Coming In 2013

Although Microsoft categorically deny any information about the development of a new generation for the Xbox, a contract between two studios leaked this week says otherwise. The document states that a possible replacement for the Xbox 360 is (or at least was) expected to hit stores in the third quarter of 2013.


In 2010, the publisher Activision Blizzard has won a contract with the studio Bungie, creator of Halo, for the development of an MMO called Destiny. The request included exclusive versions of games for both Xbox 360 and for an Xbox 720, even though he swears that the MS does not exist. At the time, companies had signed for the creation of four games that begin to be marketed from the end of 2013, with three sequences each.

The "revelation" happened by accident during the trial of a lawsuit against the distributor Actvision Vincent Zampella and Jason West, developers of the game Call of Duty. The contract lawyers revealed by Activision Blizzard also notes that a version of Destiny game for the PS3 would arrive "at the end of 2014," while a mysterious PS4 is slated to receive the Destiny 2 - this without any date or release date.

Earlier this year rumors indicated that the design of next-generation Xbox went by the codename Durango (which follows the standard Microsoft to baptize their projects with names of geographical locations). Rumors around the appliance caught fire when Sean Tracy, chief designer of Crytek (Crysis responsible for) said on Twitter that I was participating in ume "meeting in London on the Durango," message that was deleted shortly after.

According to the website Pocket Lint, manufacturing units of the Durango has already begun on the company Flextronics factory in Austin, Texas. Far from being the end product, the machines will be used by producers for the creation of the first titles for the next Xbox.
