AMD confirms Microsoft’s next-gen Xbox for 2027

AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su confirmed during the company's Q4 FY2025 earnings call that the silicon powering Microsoft's next-generation Xbox is currently on track for a 2027 launch.

While Microsoft itself has remained tight-lipped regarding its hardware roadmap, AMD stated that development of the semi-custom SoC is progressing well. This upcoming processor, frequently referred to in leaks as the Magnus APU, is expected to leverage AMD's Zen 6 CPU architecture alongside RDNA 5 graphics.

In the more immediate future, Valve's long-awaited Steam Machine revival appears to be entering the final stages of production. During the same earnings call, Dr. Su indicated that the AMD-powered Steam Machine remains on course to begin shipping early this year. However, Valve has since confirmed that the information isn't accurate, and the console, along with the Steam Frame VR headset, will be slightly delayed. Due to the ongoing memory and storage shortages, Valve decided to push the release window to the first half of 2026.

This compact cube is supposed to act as a more powerful sibling to the Steam Deck, housing a semi-custom Zen 4 processor and RDNA 3 graphics.

KitGuru says: AMD's confirmation of a 2027 launch for the next Xbox silicon suggests that Microsoft is eager to reset its console segment sooner rather than later, possibly to pre-empt Sony's PlayStation 6. The next Xbox may have more competition than expected though if Valve's new Steam Machine takes off.
