Xbox Project Scorpio: Microsoft reveals the most powerful games console ever made

Microsoft has revealed details of its long-rumoured "Project Scorpio". The mysterious new Xbox looks to be the most powerful games console ever made, according to specs published by the company. It revealed the specifications of the new project, with more information to be shown off in the coming months. But those specs make it easily the most powerful console on the market, surpassing closest rival the PS4 Pro. Unlike the recent releases of the Xbox One S and the PS4 – both of which brought updated specs and support for 4K video – the new Project Scorpio appears to be an entirely new console. But Microsoft promised that it would still be able to play Xbox One and 360 games.
