MADRID, May 1 (Portaltic / EP) –
The next general console Xbox Series X video game console will arrive at the end of the year as planned despite the coronavirus pandemic, although the production of video games has the same security.
The head of Xbox, Phil Spencer, has assured in an interview to CNBC that the coronavirus will not have an impact on the release of the Xbox Series X, which continues to maintain its arrival at Christmas 2020.
The manager has said that, overall, he believes they are “in line” with the original plans. The console will come out along with the Halo Infinite video game, which also maintains forecasts.
However, Spencer has indicated that the production of the video games that will arrive in the coming months has been affected, and has assured that he “trusts” in the state of development of the titles, but that the priority is the security of his teams. .
The pandemic has affected the provision of new Nintendo Switch game consoles, due to problems in the supply chains of some elements. The Japanese company plans to increase production between the months of April and June to meet the demand it is currently having.
In mid-April, Sony assured that it was maintaining the launch of its PlayStation 5 console, but that it would do so with a limited number of units, although in this case it has been pointed to the price of the hardware and not to production problems as the cause.
