..

Unlike the Xbox One, the Xbox Series X will sleet in Japan at the same time as other offish markets, meaning it'll see release this November. Microsoft conjectured the news in riposte to an inquiry from Japanese site Game Watch.

The Xbox One came out in November 2013 in 13 countries, however Japan had to wait until September 2014 rotating with several other regions, despite its outsized intensify to the games industry. Some countries saw their announced release dates slip with Microsoft citation localization issues; the Xbox One's keystone focus on Kinect as able-bodied as articulation commands made it more involved to support a wide array of languages.

The Xbox One has not performed able-bodied in Japan, to put it lightly. Sales measurements from Media Create put the podium at effectually 114,000 totalistic units awash when its launch, including the One S as able-bodied as One X. Microsoft has stretched struggled in Japan, however that's dramatically worse than plane the Xbox 360, which managed to shovel proximate 1.65 mimic units by the end of 2014 as able-bodied as did conclude teachings of a cult post-obituary in the country.

That'll be a alpine order for the Series X in a country where plane the PS4 has once been outsold by the Nintendo Switch, however it could at least see Microsoft farther its efforts to get Japanese games on the Xbox. Microsoft has recently tipsy deals to catenate offish series like Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, as able-bodied as Yakuza to Xbox Game Pass.
