The author has also compiled a detailed specification comparison of the two new Xbox consoles to confirm the actual differences between the two new consoles.
Obviously, the Xbox Series S will be targeted at the entry-level market, so the screen output will only correspond to 1440P, but it can basically maintain 60fps screen performance, and the size is relatively reduced by 60%. However, the physical disc drive will be cancelled, which is expected to encourage players to use digital game content or play games through streaming.

They even include a "24-installment" purchase plan through the Xbox All Access subscription method, allowing consumers to purchase the console in an easier way.
In addition to announcing the launch of the new machine, Microsoft also confirmed that it would strengthen the Xbox Game Pass subscription service, including integrating the streaming game service Project xCloud directly into Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, and Xbox Game Pass for PC will be converted to the official version. At the same time, the monthly subscription fee will also increase from US$4.99 per month during the beta phase to US$9.99 per month.
In addition, Microsoft also announced a partnership with Electronic Arts to allow all users who subscribe to the Xbox Game Pass service to use the EA Play service.
