The Xbox One release date mystery has been one full of twists and turns. Despite what would have seemed logical given how Sony revealed its launch date for the PlayStation 4 on the same day, Microsoft didn’t announce the Xbox One’s launch date at Gamescom 2013. Since then, there have been rumours that the console will be out on November 8th, with Amazon even placing November 27th as a placeholder date.
Well, prepare copious amounts of salt to take this news with, but apparently an unnamed source (connected to a “large online organisation”) told NextVG that the Xbox One will be releasing on November 22nd now. Is this just a North American release date or a worldwide launch date? Why is it a week after Sony’s PS4 launch in the US and a week before the same console’s launch in Europe?
Beats us, though the release for the Xbox 360 was on November 22nd many many moons ago. Perhaps it’s expected that the Xbox One will follow suit? Ridiculous as it all sounds, Microsoft will need to announce a release date soon and fast.
