Microsoft is planning to release a redesigned Xbox Series X console, codenamed ‘Brooklin’, with a new design and controller. That’s according to court documents published overnight, as part of Microsoft’s recent legal battle with the FTC, which have seemingly been unredacted by mistake. The docs include slides showing details and even images of the “Xbox Series X refresh”, which the docs state will include “more internal storage, faster Wi-Fi, reduced power, a more immersive controller and a beautiful design”. The console also ditches the standard Series X’s disc tray. The new Xbox controller, codenamed ‘Sebile’, will include new haptic feedback and accelerometer features, according to the leaked docs, modular thumbsticks and a rechargeable and swappable battery. According to another slide, ‘Brooklin’ will release in November 2024 with 2TB of storage for the same price as the current Xbox Series X ($499). The same leaked documents mention an Xbox Series S refresh featuring 1TB of storage for next September. According to the docs, the Series S refresh will include some of the Brooklin features such as improved Wi-Fi support.
