The next generation of Xbox consoles will be announced at E3 2019, according to a report from French website JeuxVideo.
According to the website, the consoles are code-named βLockhartβ and βAnaconda.β Lockhart is a entry level device without a disc drive and focused on digital, while Anaconda is a high-end device priced similarly to Xbox One X at launch.
