Met de E3 voor de deur heeft Microsoft vandaag alvast een nieuwe revisie van hun Xbox One console aangekondigd. Want zoals de huidige XOne bezitters wel weten is dat de HDD van 500 gig zo vol zit, daarom heeft Microsoft nu besloten om een 1TB versie uit te brengen en doen daar ook gelijk de vernieuwde controller bij. Want ook deze erg cheap plastic aanvoelende controller die nu op de markt is heeft de nodige problemen met Surround Headsets, Triggers en updaten (wat met de nieuwe draadloos kan in plaats van USB kabel) etc etc. Maar goed, hier is alle info.

Today, we're unveiling the Xbox One 1TB console, with a new matte finish and more storage for your games and media. But that's not all. We're also including our newly designed Xbox One Wireless Controller, and in select regions for a limited time, Halo: The Master Chief Collection.

The new Xbox One Wireless Controller now features a 3.5mm stereo jack that lets you plug a headset right into the controller. You'll have the option to adjust headset volume, mic monitoring, and voice and game audio balance through the Settings menu on your console. In addition to audio improvements, we've fine-tuned the bumpers and enabled wireless firmware updates on the updated controller which eliminates having to connect the controller via USB cable to receive updates. What's more, you can purchase the new controller ($64.99 U.S. MSRP) as a standalone item in black as well as a new camouflage design in silver and black with the Xbox One Special Edition Covert Forces Wireless Controller.

Xbox One 1TB consoles will start shipping to retailers June 16 in the United States and select markets later this month and will be available starting at $399 USD ERP. We're also pleased to announce that starting today, the $349 USD price on all standard Xbox One 500GB consoles will be permanent in the United States and select regions.

And finally, we are happy to announce that starting this Fall, you'll be able to purchase the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows to enjoy the freedom and convenience of the wireless controller on Windows 10 PCs, laptops, and tablets. The Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows will be available for $24.99 U.S. MSRP or bundled with an Xbox One Wireless Controller for $79.95 U.S. MSRP and sold in most markets where Xbox accessories are currently available.
