- Images of an Xbox-themed Meta Quest 3S have surfaced online, showcasing the product’s packaging and design.
- According to Game Sandwich’s Kevin Lopez report, the VR Headset will be revealed on June 24.
- Its launch price is rumored to be set at $399.
The image in question displays the ‘Meta 3S Xbox Edition packaging.’ Emblazoned near the bottom are Meta Quest and Xbox logos, with the box art adopting the platform’s all-black motifs. The VR Headset follows suit and is doused in black, with a green trim running on the front panel’s edges. Stationed near the top is the Xbox branding, and we can also spot an Xbox Controller sitting in the top right corner.
The leaks don’t end there . Kevin Lopez of Game Sandwich reported that the Xbox M eta 3s will be shadow-dropped this Tuesday, June 24. The report also mentions that the product will be priced at $399 and will offer three months of Game Pass Ultimate.
The product’s contents include a black and green headset with matching accessories, an Elite Strap, and an Xbox wireless controller. The headset itself has 128 GB of system memory, making it a standard Meta Quest 3S with Xbox branding stapled all over. However, these details have yet to be confirmed, so take them with a grain of salt.
Seeing Xbox venture into the VR market is jarring, to say the least, but it aligns with their newly adopted ‘Everything is an Xbox’ motto. The company has been adamant about removing platform requirements for its software, and its latest collaboration reinforces this philosophy. As for how popular their VR endeavor will be, only time will tell.

- Microsoft and AMD will co-engineer new Xbox hardware, including consoles and handhelds.
- The next-generation Xbox will support multiple game stores, featuring Steam, GOG, etc.
- As per the announcement, backward compatibility and cross-device support are core to Xbox’s future vision.
Microsoft has officially confirmed that it is building the next-gen Xbox consoles, and it is teaming up once again with AMD to power the future of gaming. In a short announcement video, Xbox president Sarah Bond shared that the two companies have entered a multi-year partnership to co-engineer new hardware. This new lineup will include both home consoles and handheld gaming devices, all working under one evolving ecosystem.
Bond said the next-generation of Xbox will bring advanced performance, AI-enhanced features, and complete backward compatibility . In the era of expensive gaming, the last part really stood out to me. As someone who has grown up with Xbox through every generation, knowing that my current library will carry forward is both reassuring and exciting. It shows that Microsoft is thinking about players, not just new tech.
Next-Gen Xbox Consoles Will Have Multiple Store Support
Microsoft’s partnership with AMD for the next-generation Xbox also hints at a much larger shift. Beyond just using a powerful AMD chip in the new consoles, there’s more on offer. As per Bond’s statement, the “ next-gen Xbox will not be locked to a single store “. Yes, you heard that right, console war marks!
Xbox is eyeing a future where your console is the only gaming machine you’ll ever need. Want to dive into Halo Infinite via Game Pass, then switch gears for a deep dive into Baldur’s Gate 3 on Steam? You got it! Xbox will flip the script on console ownership , bringing PC-like flexibility right to your living room.
Another exciting reveal is that Microsoft is working closely with the Windows team. This likely means that future Xbox hardware could operate like a powerful Windows-based gaming machine, while still keeping the simplicity of a console. We are already seeing early signs of this with the Xbox-branded ROG Ally handhelds , which run on Windows and support multiple game libraries.
Whether you are a fan or not, AI will play a key role in the next-generation Xbox. Microsoft and AMD are working to improve visuals, gameplay, and responsiveness. The goal is to make games feel better without losing that classic console experience. There’s no release date yet, but 2027 seems likely, especially if you believe in rumors. Until then, Microsoft is focused on connecting console, PC, and handheld platforms. Your games and progress will move with you. As someone who switches devices often, I’m really looking forward to that.
This is the most confident I’ve felt in Xbox’s direction in a long time. The next-generation Xbox looks set to deliver real improvements where it counts.
A gaming nerd who covers all things video games. Spending time playing games and writing about them was always a dream. Thanks to Beebom, I live it. Once I am done gaming, I write. Once I am done writing, I game. You feel me.
