A mysterious Xbox Series X controller appeared last month which looked strikingly similar to the new leak with the new D-pad, textured triggers, and new share button. Overall it seems very similar to the Elite controllers. The appearance of this controller indicates that these consoles could start appearing in stores soon.

The Series S console is expected to come with 7.5GB of RAM, 4 teraflops of GPU performance, and the same chip as the Series X. As mentioned before, the new console is expected to appear sometime later this month and it will likely be a huge part of Microsoft’s Xbox All Access subscription.
