We’ve been talking about the mystery for a long time Xbox Keystoneor Project Keystone, which should be a small console on the part of Microsoft focused on the use of streaming games and the form of this may have been revealed by a patent recently emerged, but also from Phil Spencer’s inevitable shelf.
As reported by Windows Central, a Microsoft patent was recently found which shows a drawing of a mysterious console, small and without an optical reader, referring to a device capable of connecting to any display and allowing gaming without complex hardware dedicated.
The images illustrate a small, square machine, somewhat reminiscent of a flatter and narrower Xbox Series S, with a USB port, a power button, an ethernet port and an HDMI, as well as a pairing button.
A match on Phil Spencer’s shelf
This could be concrete evidence of Keystone’s existence and its intended shape.
In fact, the fact that the project was an ongoing thing was also confirmed by Phil Spencer himself, but it reportedly appears that the device was then shelved.
The idea was to be able to launch the small console for streaming gaming to a price as low as possibleor around 100-129 dollars with an attached controller, a mission that apparently has not been achieved, or in any case was not considered profitably feasible at the moment by Microsoft.
That’s not to say that Keystone isn’t destined to appear on the market, sooner or later.
Upon closer inspection, the shape that emerges from these drawings corresponds precisely to that little white box that appeared some time ago on the inevitable shelf behind Phil Spencer during one of his connections from the office, which would give further substance to the theory.
