Leaked images reveal white Xbox Series X with no disc drive

The Verge reports it saw documents detailing changes to the white Series X that indicate the leaked photos are genuine.

Previous reports from Exputer claimed that the white Series X could launch in June or July with a price cut of $50 to $100 USD (about $67.84 to $135.64 CAD).

The documents included information about a project codenamed ‘Brooklin’ that aimed to refresh the Xbox Series X with a new, cylindrical design.

Brooklin also wouldn’t have a disc drive and was set to ship with a new controller and Xbox Wireless 2 connection.

Brooklin was supposed to ship in November at the same $499 USD starting price as the current Series X (so likely the same $649.99 in Canada).

However, Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer addressed the leaks in September 2023, saying that “ so much has changed.”
