As the Xbox model and franchise gear up to mark a quarter-century milestone in November 2026, Microsoft has reportedly begun laying groundwork for a dual celebration.
In a recent interview with License World Journal, John Pal, head of client merchandise at Xbox, discussed the vast array of franchises under Microsoft’s umbrella, both new and legacy. While touching on the company’s plans to commemorate Xbox’s 25th anniversary.
As we prepare to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Xbox, we’re eager to honor our rich heritage and legacy, with communities that have been thriving for decades, making this milestone a truly special occasion.
While specifics remain unclear, it’s essential to connect the dots between ongoing leaks and speculation. Rumors suggest, for instance, that a remastered version of the game may be in development – an opportunity Microsoft could seize upon to coincide with the title’s 25th-anniversary celebration.
In the meantime, reports have surfaced suggesting that the next generation of Xbox is poised to launch as early as 2026, earlier than many industry insiders had anticipated, with rumors also circulating about the inclusion of a portable device.
