Project Scorpio to get a full reveal at E3

Microsoft has confirmed that full details on its Project Scorpio console will be revealed at E3 in June.

There was some speculation that a special pre-E3 event will be created for focus on the console, but that isn't seemingly the case.

"With Project Scorpio, we set a design goal of building the first true 4K console for gamers with an emphasis on compatibility so no one gets left behind. Once we locked that plan, we set our sights on building the world’s most powerful console development platform, which includes the new Xbox One Development Kit and a full suite of software to get every ounce of performance from the platform. Like the retail console, we built this special dev kit by evaluating every piece, from hardware to software and tools, with developers and compatibility in mind," said Phil Spencer, Head of Xbox.

"Ultimately, we know you care most about great games, whether they be exclusive, multiplatform, independent or AAA. We are proud of the diverse lineup of games coming this year that will only be playable on Xbox One and will play better on Project Scorpio. We designed Project Scorpio to be the best console to play the blockbuster multiplatform games from our publishing partners, made it easy for recently released titles to upgrade to true 4K and for beloved, backward compatible titles to play better than ever before."

Full details are expected at the E3 2017 Xbox Media Briefing taking place on Sunday, June 11 at 2 PM PT.
