Hardware and game library
Microsoft’s March 2026 developer update identifies Project Helix as next-generation first-party Xbox hardware intended for Xbox console and PC games. The announcement describes collaboration with AMD and next-generation graphics technologies. These are development plans, not a final retail specification sheet.
Choosing the right model
The 2027 milestone concerns alpha hardware for developers. It must not be presented as a consumer release date. No purchase button is provided here because the cited announcement does not establish a retail product offer. Follow the official update for confirmed details rather than treating a speculative store listing as a preorder.
Model and edition registry
Selected documented models and editions. This registry does not yet include every regional SKU, promotional unit or limited edition.

Development codename
Final consumer models and editions have not been established.
A development announcement does not establish a final shell, retail package, regional SKU or shipping date. The absence of a hardware photograph here is intentional: a fan rendering or a different Xbox would misrepresent the product. This record stays outside search indexing until its consumer details can support a useful product guide.
This hardware record does not yet have a verified GTA compatibility entry. Check the GTA release-platform catalogue before buying it for a particular game. Do not assume support through emulation, streaming or backwards compatibility.
Images identify the pictured hardware; they are not evidence for every variant listed. Missing regional SKUs and undocumented editions remain outside this guide. Send a correction with a source.
