Xbox exclusive 'The Medium' won't come out until January 2021

It looks like one more title is avoiding the launch of Cyberpunk 2077. The upcoming horror game from Blair Witch developer Bloober Team will be pushed back to January 28, 2021. The Medium was initially supposed to launch on December 10 for the Xbox Series S and Series X.

The studio didn't outright mention CD Projekt Red's highly anticipated title. But it said in its release, “It wasn’t an easy choice to make, but one made due to the COVID-19 situation in Poland, as well as the current schedule of other games on the market."

This is how much usable storage you'll get from the PS5, Xbox Series S/X

While both next-generation consoles from Sony and Microsoft aren't out yet, new previously unknown details about the gaming machines are starting to surface, like how much usable storage you'll get. 

A leak about the PlayStation 5 suggests it'll have around 650GB of usable storage from its 825GB custom SSD. A screenshot from noted leaker Okami13 and shared by GamesRadar showed the system with 648GB free out of 667GB, including space taken by the free Astro's Playroom install. It takes up around 20% of the memory. It isn't clear, though, if the launch game's size is included in the console's storage space or if it was installed afterwards.
