Xbox Series X is Microsoft's new game console for 2020

Featuring 4K, 60FPS gaming, ray tracing, and more

Highly anticipated: We've known Microsoft is working on a new Xbox gaming console (codenamed "Scarlett") for some time now, but tonight, at 2019's annual Game Awards, the company finally saw fit to showcase it to the world. The device is called the "Xbox Series X," and it'll be available during 2020's holiday season.

In the end, though, the unit's looks matter much less than its capabilities, and in that regard, the Xbox Series X is set to impress.

Xbox chief Phil Spencer showed off the full power of the device with an in-engine trailer for Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, which you can watch below. Hellblade II is the sequel to Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, the mind-bending horror adventure game developed by Ninja Theory (one of the many indie studios recently swallowed up by Microsoft).

Microsoft also says 8K and 120FPS gameplay will be supported, but we wouldn't be surprised if players ha
