A lot has been happening in the Xbox camp in recent days. In fact, we’ve been inundated with news about the brand’s future and its availability on new platforms. But now the real revelation has come. According to unofficial information, Microsoft will limit the supply of the consoles in select markets..


The source of these reports is the website. the edgeAccording to him, the future of Microsoft’s gaming division is marked by major changes.

  1. Xbox Series X/S is not expected to sell well in Europe, Middle East and AfricaIts results are said to be 13% lower than Xbox One. Therefore, a decision was made to limit the supply of equipment to these regions. In addition, the marketing of the devices was to be suspended.
  2. Instead, Microsoft wants to focus on the Xbox Game Pass subscription (which will now cost more), cloud gaming, and PCs and consoles.

This approach would be, to some extent, an admission of defeat on Microsoft’s part. It appears that the Redmond giant’s consoles are not very popular.


On the other hand, the alleged decision of the “Greens” is not particularly shocking, given the increasing availability of cloud gaming.The Xbox Game Pass app has been available on Samsung TVs for some time now — and the only thing you need to use it is a Microsoft controller. Just a couple of days ago, that option was expanded to the Amazon Fire TV Stick. That announcement was accompanied by an ad that explicitly stated: “You don’t need an Xbox to play on Xbox.”

Of course, you should remember that these reports are still just unofficial reports and should be treated with caution. Time will tell if these words are actually true.
