Is the Microsoft Xbox Series X launching in November?

A Microsoft executive may have confirmed the release month of the upcoming Xbox Series X console ahead of the Xbox Game Showcase. Bloomberg's Dina Bass asked Microsoft CFO Amy Hood during an investor call if the gaming machine is "still on track" for its launch. And Hood mentioned that it was on track for the November holidays launch. When asked to clarify, Bass tweeted, "It was in response to a question from me and I said 'new console' and "November holidays.' Her answer was the single word 'yes.'"

A November launch isn't out of the ordinary, as this would follow the release schedule of previous Xbox consoles. Microsoft is still using the "Holiday 2020" tagline for its marketing purposes, but we may or may not hear more information at the Xbox Games Showcase. We'll keep you posted for any updates.
