Rumors have surfaced online that major PC manufacturers ASUS and MSI may release their own devices based on Microsoft's Project Helix. This refers to a new generation of hardware platform for Xbox, developed in collaboration with AMD. Despite this, Microsoft is not planning to abandon its own console.
Project Helix is a new chip that will serve as the foundation for the future Xbox. It is expected to support advanced upscaling technologies, including FSR Diamond, as well as neural rendering solutions. According to rumors, the platform may be less restricted than competing solutions, opening up opportunities for third-party manufacturers.
If the information is confirmed, ASUS and MSI could create their own devices with deep integration into the Xbox ecosystem, offering users a hybrid between a PC and a console. A similar approach has already been used in portable devices, where the Xbox interface combines with PC hardware capabilities to deliver a more versatile gaming experience.
At the same time, Microsoft continues working on its own next-generation console, which will also use Project Helix. Partner devices are seen more as an additional avenue to expand the company's market presence. Official details are still scarce, but the strategy points to a gradual convergence of the PC and console worlds.
