As part of the Competition and Markets Authority's investigation into Microsoft's proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Microsoft discussed potential launch timing for new consoles.

In the statement provided to the CMA, Microsoft said "the next new generation of consoles are not expected to be released before the fall of 2028 at the very earliest." That means the earliest release date possible is sometime in the fall of 2028.
