Microsoft Discontinues Xbox One X and One S | Sony still making new PS4s

Xbox One X

Microsoft has discontinued manufacturing all Xbox One consoles. The software company initially discontinued the Xbox One X and digital Xbox One S ahead of the Xbox Series X launch, then calmly stopped making it at the end of 2020, departing vendors to sell out their remaining products.

To concentrate on the production of Xbox Series X / S, we stopped production for all Xbox One consoles by the end of 2020,” states Cindy Walker, senior director of Xbox console product marketing, in a report to The Verge.

Microsoft’s assurance arrives just as a Bloomberg report indicated Sony had intended to end PS4 production at the end of 2021, and the firm will now manufacture around a million PS4 consoles in 2022. 

Sony has verified PS4 production is continuing, amid efforts by both Microsoft and Sony to meet the need for their latest Xbox Series X and PS5 consoles.

PS4 is one of the best-selling consoles ever, and there is consistently crossover between years.” That fits since it touches as the PS4 should still be approximate — there are still new cross-generation games reaching out like Horizon Forbidden West, and it’s not like you can reliably locate a PS5 just posing on store shelves.

However, Microsoft appears to satisfy the $299 (Rs. 22,161) Xbox Series S demand. 

Talking just after the launch of the Xbox Series X / S in 2020, Xbox chief Phil Spencer revealed to The Verge that Microsoft had built more Xbox Series X consoles than Series S, but that eventually, the lower price point of the Series S would beat out.

We can make more of the Series S [chips] in the same [chip] die space as we can the Series X,” stated Spencer. 

That’s a fundamental cause why we’re witnessing steady Xbox Series S stock, alongside Microsoft’s conclusion to calmly stop the Xbox One S in popularity of its next-gen consoles.
