Microsoft is reportedly working on two new Xbox game consoles that will be revealed at E3 2019. Halo Infinite is going to be one of the games that will be a launch title for the next Xbox.
This new rumor comes from French Website JeuxVideo who also shared a report on how Microsoft and Nintendo are forming a new partnership by releasing games like Ori and the Blind Forest, Cuphead, and Xbox Game Pass for the Nintendo Switch.
The two new Xbox consoles have been rumored before in the past. They are codenamed as Xbox Lockhart and Xbox Anaconda.

So what about games? Well, the rumor talks about Halo Infinite being a cross-generation game that will be a launch title, so it might release in Fall 2020. After Microsoft acquired Ninja Theory, their next game might be released in early 2020 although since it will be out before the release of the next-generation of Xbox consoles, it might not be a launch title.
