According to Engadget , the Xbox Series X/S console's life cycle has been three years, and Microsoft recently announced that it will no longer produce games for the Xbox One. Although the company still supports titles like Minecraft and Halo Infinite for the device, the Xbox Game Studios development team will not work on new titles for the older console in the future.
The move was a necessary one to help new games no longer be held back by the Xbox One's hardware limitations. However, those still using Xbox One will still be able to play Series X/S titles like Starfield and Forza Motorsport via Xbox Cloud Gaming.
Microsoft says it has stopped developing games for the Xbox One
The news comes after Xbox's impressive showing at its annual big reveal last weekend, where the company announced new titles like South of Midnight and Clockwork Revolution , and gave fresh looks at games like Fable, Avowed , and Saga: Hellblade II .
The discontinuation of Xbox One game production will free Microsoft's development teams from the shackles of older-generation hardware, but some third-party developers have expressed concern that the Xbox Series S (which is less powerful than the Series X) is also holding them back.
Microsoft admits that ensuring games run well on the Series S will require more work, but the company also notes that its studios are still doing a good job of optimizing projects for the Series S.
