Microsoft debunks new Xbox Series X video revealing ports & controller UPDATE January 6, 4:45PM PST: Microsoft have since issued a statement, and have said that the renders shown off by AMD were false, according to Thurrott.com. \u201cThe Xbox Series X imagery used during the AMD CES press conference was not sourced from Microsoft and does not accurately represent the design or features of the upcoming console. They were taken from TurboSquid.com.\u201d Original article below\u2026 Rear shots of Microsoft\u2019s Xbox Series X console were revealed during the AMD CES 2020 event on January 6, and gave eager fans a glimpse at new details that weren\u2019t shown off during the original reveal. Xbox\u2019s next generation console was first teased at E3 back in June 2019 under the name \u2018Project Scarlett,\u2019 and was later revealed to be called the Series X during The Game Awards on December 12. Inside components such as a custom solid-state drive and GDDR6 SDRAM were unveiled, as well as an overall look at the console\u2019s front, but the back of the system was never shown off \u2013 until now, that is. New Xbox Series X details During AMD\u2019s annual tech show CES, new shots of Microsoft\u2019s upcoming system were unveiled, which gave fans a peek at what the rear looks like. In the reveal, the console was shown to have two USB-C ports, two HDMI ports, and Sony\/Philips Digital Interface capability. Two HDMIs is certainly interesting, but could just mean they\u2019re In and Out like the Xbox One \u2013 but who knows? Rear shot of Xbox Series X shown during AMD CES presentation.

Fans were awarded with a new glimpse at the upcoming controller too, and were shown what it will look like from the side in order to get a better feel of how big it\u2019ll be. The flat design of the gamepad looks sort of similar to the Nintendo Switch\u2019s Pro Controller, and it was shown to have black bumpers at the front and silver ones at the rear.
