AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su let out a hint about when a next-gen Xbox could launch during the company's Q4 2025 earnings call. Providing commentary on client revenue, the top executive said, "Development of
Microsoft's next-gen Xbox featuring an AMD semi-custom SoC is progressing well to support a launch in 2027."
AMD has been a long-term partner with Microsoft on its Xbox consoles. Both the Xbox One and Xbox Series consoles sport semi-custom AMD SoCs. More recently, AMD and Microsoft partnered for the
Asus ROG Xbox Ally X, and the two companies announced a
partnership for the next-gen Xbox console in June 2025.
Neither AMD nor Microsoft have confirmed a release window up to this point, but rumors have pointed toward a 2027 for the past several months. In August 2025, leaker Moore's Law is Dead suggested the next-gen APU, reportedly codenamed "Magnus," would leverage Zen 6 and Zen 6c CPU cores, along with an RDNA 5-powered GPU.
