Eurogamer today revealed the specifications for the upcoming successor to the Xbox One. Her 'Project Scorpio' Microsoft achieved the performance of six teraflops using a custom 8-core processor clocked at 2,3 GHz.
This particular processor makes the upcoming console about 30% faster than the Xbox One, and much better to handle multitasking.
Please note that the site claims that leaks come directly from Microsoft, and states that they are official and final.
Microsoft's main goal with Project Scorpio is to achieve complete compatibility with current games of Xbox One but also the opposite.
The GPU of upcoming Project Scorpios is about 4,6 times stronger than the Xbox. It will wear 12 GB GDDR5 RAM from which 8GB will only be for games.
All of the above features make the upcoming console a bit more powerful than PS4 Pro and although it is unable to play any PS4 game on 4K, Project Scorpio can theoretically handle almost every current Xbox One title on 4K.
With Pro Scorpio, Microsoft hopes to win back the developers as it has several toolsets to make it easier to create games.
Of course there is no exact one yet date launch, and no pricing has been leaked, although more information will surely leak before E3.
