https://in.reuters.com/article/microsof ... NKBN27Q0S2Microsoft Corp MSFT.O on Tuesday launched two models of its Xbox gaming console, seven years after the debut of the previous version, to capture a pandemic-driven boom in consumer spending on games.
The Xbox Series X - which the company has described as the “world’s most powerful console” - will retail for $499.99 (379.1 pounds) and a lower-priced Xbox Series S will sell for $299.99.
Xbox will compete with Sony Corp's 6758.T PlayStation 5, scheduled to launch on Thursday. PS5 is widely viewed as leading the console race due to its bigger fan base and a broader range of exclusive gaming titles available at launch.
