However, there is no verifiable evidence. There isn’t any official reporting from business sectors either. And as of right now, nothing has been confirmed yet, so whether these rumors turn out to be true, only time will tell. Currently, it is just a collection of tweets from the Xbox community. It is just a bunch of fanfictions and wishes.

This could be nothing at all, but still, it is worth a bit of discussion, right?
