The logo design for Microsoft’s upcoming next-gen Xbox console appears to have actually dripped online, and also it’s pretty different to what came before. Absolutely, there’s even more of a distinction between this supposed Xbox Series X logo and the Xbox One logo than there was in between the PS4 and PS5 logos, which are virtually identical.

Microsoft filed a trademark on April 16th that was promptly grabbed by eagle-eyed fans over on Reddit. As you can see below, the style is a whole lot sleeker and also minimalist than anything we’ve actually seen from Xbox before. The X is plainly motivated by the layout of the Xbox One X logo, nonetheless there are some noticeable tweaks.

That’s practically all I’ve reached claim about this. What do you want from me? It’s a logo design. Simply check out it yourself listed below.

Remember when Sony revealed the PlayStation 5 logo a couple of months back? That was incredibly exciting … until all of us knew that it was basically exactly the same as the PS4 logo design, however with a 5 instead of a 4. Still, the whole point of that underwhelming change remains in aid of brand name recognition and all that jazz, so whatever helps them.

Assuming this Xbox logo design is legit (and also I envision it is) Microsoft will certainly have entirely different factors for intending to differ from what came in the past, as well as I expect seeing exactly how that settles for the company. There are no winners or losers here folks, just two powerful consoles as well as – I hope – some fantastic games on the way.

Whether this recently appeared filing means that Microsoft is preparing some type of news soon stays to be seen, yet I wouldn’t bet against it. We recognize E3 was intended to take location in simply a couple of short months, and also no doubt Microsoft will still want to go in advance and share all the information and also reveals it had actually prepared for LA expo.

Now that we’ve seen the console itself and also understand all about what’s taking place under the hood of the equipment, all that’s left is the software application. With any luck that indicates a far better check out the Xbox Series X at work alongside a few of the brand-new video games the company has lined up for the next-gen console. I’ve waited long enough to see and also in all their magnificence, so allow’s see what’s cooking.
