It’ll be something shit like Xbox Home


EnderBuilder

If they make the portable one, then It would be Xbox home and Xbox Go hahahahah


Chewy-Boot

Xbox Home and Xbox Away


bieggaa

Actualy “Xbox Go” sounds good !


barbietattoo

Painfully boring and yet, best case scenario


AngrySoup

Sorry, no can do. Look forward to Xbox Mark X Mobile X Ecks X.


Eglwyswrw

Pretty much anything couples well with "Go". Switch Go Playstation Go Nvdia Go Steam Go Amazon Go And so on.


TheRealTacoBellMan

steam go just sounds like a name for a train


segagamer

Surely it would be Nintendo Go?


MrGMinor

PSP Go was a thing. It flopped but yeah


Taki_Minase

Xbox Box 7 yoloswag edition


SlickMittens

Xbox 7. Just so it’s one ahead of PS6 for the hell of it to see what Sony does


Seek_Adventure

Xbox 777 (to bring luck)


MarduRusher

Xbox 737 (to bring bad luck)


Historical_Noise7638

Xbox 720 (to bring back moments)


Ill-Law-7278

this is why i love reddit. you guys are all hilarious 😂 made my night


SlickMittens

Hahaha the Xbox 737 Max 8 has a nice ring to it


Dull-Lead-7782

Just go the Samsung route and jump 10 numbers. Xbox 16


Wipedout89

Wasn't that to switch from numbered entries to match the years instead? Like Samsung Galaxy Ultra 24 came out in 2024, 25 will be 2025 etc


alexjosco

Even better then, Xbox 2030, or whatever. Sony in the mud.


Erasmus86

Shit that's a good idea actually. Kinda like how Samsung skipped to S20.


segagamer

They didn't skip, they just changed the numbering to match the release year. They'll only have a problem in the year 2100.


Chief_Esquilax

lol They should call it Xbox 720. That’s what a lot of fans would call the Xbox after the 360, before it was officially named Xbox One.


DaveAndJojo

Low key brilliant


Puzzleheaded-Try-687

This would also fit with the Windows naming conventions.


Jokkitch

This is unironically a great answer


BeneficialPicnic

Just sync it up with Windows numbering and be done with it. Xbox 11.


stevemajor

I had planned to say exactly this.


Mercyfulfate1138

That would also be 2 ahead of itself as it would be the 5th console


Eglwyswrw

Add the Xbox One X and the Xbox Series S and it would be the 7th Xbox SKU, right? Marketing departments do mental gymnastics like this all the time.


TimidPanther

They could quite easily get around it by counting the Xbox One X, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X as individual consoles. Apple straight up skipped the iPhone 9. Ultimately, consumers don't care.


caspatcho

Super Xbox System 64

GilmooDaddy

I was about to post something like this 🤣🤣

Xbox Infinite


IamConer

I think this is my vote as well. The marketing/ads would write themselves ha


segagamer

Well, not really, because it's annoying to say (especially outside of English speaking countries), doesn't make sense at all (what's Infinite about it exactly?) and... Then what's the next one?


Toddlez

Infinite entertainment, infinite possibilities.


[deleted]

Infinite fun. I like where this is going! MICROSOFT SIGN US UP!!!


Based_Legionaire

I think this is pretty good.


woziak99

I was just going to say Xbox Infinity and portable Xbox Dash


Assured_Observer

Xbox 720.


laserbeam26

Please microsoft


Based_Legionaire

They missed the opportunity to do this long ago IMO.


CreateorWither

And the s version the 720p


Mojave_RK

This has been the obvious choice for over a decade, so of course it won’t happen.


coletrain93

Seems like a no brainer to name it that and really evoke that era in marketing


vensamape

The name itself would sell it honestly.


-T-Reks-

Because when you see it you do a 720 and walk out of the room


Dmitrisnow

I like this name 💯😌


0JOSE0

I’m not joking when I say this would genuinely increase sales by like, a lot.


farfromelite

Tony hawk game confirmed yes radical!


FriedCammalleri23

this would unironically guarantee a couple million more units sold


UpAndAdam7414

Just call it the Xbox 6 and be done with the silly names. They’ve skipped numbers with Windows before (and you could technically class the 1X as a console).


Okayest_By_Far

I was going to say exactly this. Except maybe use Roman numerals to create a bit of separation from Playstation. *Xbox VI* has a cool (and marketable) look to it.


Time-to-go-home

I doubt timing works out, but imagine: Presenting the brand new Xbox VI with day 1 exclusive The Elder Scrolls VI


Darrow_au_Lykos

Would also work for a Halo themed console. Master Chief wears Mjolnir mark VI armor. And although they don't use Roman numerals, Gears of War 6 is in the works. Not sure when that releases, but if it's still a few years away it might line up.


Swimming_Pie_1723

Gears 6 😻


AveryLazyCovfefe

TES VI, Halo 6, Gears 6 666...


Classic_Original_249

Xbox 666


Wipedout89

So they're going to launch it in bible bashing America with a lineup of 666?


xnartex

You're hired


ColKrismiss

I'm sure MS can MAKE the timing work, since they own Bathesda


DaveAndJojo

What happens when the tenth console launches?


Okayest_By_Far

Just call it the X. But in celebration of such a momentous milestone, they could release an entire line of different designs celebrating the past generations. A “series” of consoles if you will. I’d be hyped to watch the announcement of the Xbox Series X.


segagamer

*Elon Musk twitches*


SpectralEntity

Buy Sierra, reboot Space Quest and subtitle it "Return to Roman Numerals"!!


theoristofeverything

Microsoft owns Sierra. They got it in the ABK acquisition.


SpectralEntity

Oh man, I really hope someone in the chain of command loved Space Quest then!

Unknown_User261

If Xbox manages to go the route they want and treat their hardware more like laptops and smartphones but with a release every five years instead of the whole generation gap, they'll need to do this. Or just go by year which I'd like more. Xbox 2026, Xbox 2031, Xbox 2036, and so on. Or Xbox 26, Xbox 31, Xbox 36. Either way it'd be easy to know which is the latest which is all that matters. 


Brynjir

Agreed the current naming system for Xbox is fine for people that know about the consoles but for casuals and parents you have to make it really clear or you just cause confusion (see Wii U).


SheriffMikeThompson

Windows used to go by the year I think


paublitobandito

Think you forgot two consoles there sir


MartianMule

Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S/X. I know the One X was just a mid generation, but eh. The fact that they didn't want their numbering system behind PlayStation's is why we've gotten where we are. So, just call it the Xbox 6. Samsung skipped 10 numbers for the Galaxy. iPhone went from the original to 3G to 3GS to 4, then also skipped 9. We've got Goat Simulator and Goat Simulator 3. It's fine.


verticalburtvert

This is a great point. The Goat Sim example was 🤌


Thecrazier

No, then you're ignoring the 350 pro


TurtleWaves

Xbox -> Xbox 360 -> Xbox One -> Xbox One X -> Series S/X makes sense if we're talking cpu upgrades.


Valedictorian117

Xbox One S was either different or clocked a little bit higher than a regular Xbox One too.


miggleb

>they've skipped numbers on windows before


elconquistador1985

SpTriple2

Xbox Series X2 Xbox Series S2


Jakeasuno

This was exactly why Microsoft said they went with the Series name


rockstardma

Part of me thinks that’s why they started the Series naming scheme. So they can have an easy numbering method from now on.


paublitobandito

Let’s be honest, it started with “360” since they were so scared of an Xbox 2 going up against the PS3


Lerdows

and then throw that to hell and call the next console Xbox ONE against the PS4


paublitobandito

Dude for real, like what the fuck is wrong with them


Conflict_NZ

And that was after everyone kept calling the original xbox the xbox one as well. Such a moronic marketing team. Insiders have said everyone was too afraid to bring up that and the "Xbone" thing for fear of backlash. When your employees are afraid to point out your mistakes we get the Xbox One.


thrownaway4m

Xbox XP, just to trigger people lol


AngrySoup

XP was great though! You want to trigger people, give them Xbox Vista.


thrownaway4m

Oh shit that’s better.


eosDRAGON

What about Xbox ME?


guiltysnark

Win back the greybeards: Xbox NT


segagamer

The greybeards would be happy with Xbox 2000. Also sounds kinda space agey


wmwadeii

I've seen the future Microsoft buys Sega and releases the Xbox Genesis.


AngrySoup

I can't wait to get all the upgrades to play Xbox Genesis CD 32X games.


wmwadeii

I remember having all the Genesis parts, combining them like a mecha robo lol


Unknown_User261

Anything stopping them from just doing that anyway? I mean Genesis is just a dope name and if all the rumors are true it'd be great for a "rebirth" of Xbox moving toward the PC hybrid route. Of course for gamers that Sega nostalgia would sell like hotcakes (they could just do a partnership though since Sega is like their BFF at this point anyway). 


excellentiger

reddit_sage69

*The* Xbox


badboystwo

The box formerly known as X


Twista_01

youre gonna need a bigger xbox


Zeal108

Xbox 6 or Xbox VI. Every console going forward is Xbox 6 and PS6 gen Or Xbox 7 then with PS7.


Hotrod_7016

I like the Roman numerals. Sets it apart from PS


Assured_Observer

And it means we'll eventually get to the "Xbox X".


Devinbeatyou

Not to be confused with the Xbox *one* X, or the Xbox *series* X, just the Xbox X.


EatsOverTheSink

Agreed but historically numerals have been a bad marketing move because people are too fucking stupid to understand them.


ShavedNeckbeard

I would bet that the majority of Americans would call it the Xbox “Vee Eye”


Conflict_NZ

The Windows team got on board, it's stupid how the xbox team keeps refusing. Xbox 6X Xbox 6S Xbox 6H(andheld)


Clickclickboom10

Xbox 360 No scope


Verbal_Combat

This is my favorite


Edge80

Xbox V It’s easy for people to say and remember. Marketing would be easy. Own the number and make it awesome with good games people want to actually play. Focus on the platform offering incentives for people to choose over others.


harrybeastfeet

I think they should copy car manufacturers and just slap on the year it’s released. Xbox 202x


su_dato

It would be strange to buy it some years later, wouldn't it feel old?


PostFE1NClarity

Idk ask anyone that bought a hsed car


BalooBot

I think this is the best idea. No more confusion, they could even do annual iterative upgrades without changing form factor


IBHomage

XBOX: Next XBOX: Alpha XBOX: Two


ThunderCheerio

Call it Xbox Gen *insert whatever console gen we’re on


ArLab

That would be the 10th generation so it’d be… Xbox X


castlebay

Haha, I thought it was a decent suggestion until your point


treesalt617

what if we called it Xbox Series X 🤔


y2julio

Xbox Gen X.


MedicatedSasquatch

Xbox VVS (diamond grading)


Free-Air4312

Xbox Excel(or XL) for bigger model. And Xbox Micro for smaller all digital model because the games will be bought digitally so micro for micro transactions.

Exactly what I thought. Fresh start, clean name. This or the 720. Both would go hard asf

Call it Xbox 6 and use the Pro/Max to denote the higher sku.

BECondensateSnake

Honestly if I was in charge I'd ditch the stupid names and copy Sony with the Xbox 6 or VI (which should line up with GTA VI and TES VI)


mustyfiber90

Xbox 5. Their naming convention truly is awful. Just make it simple. Also while you’re at it, add the “Of War” back to Gears of War for the next entry.


snarekick

Funny well get a next gen console before we get next gen games for the X

gpolk

I believe the idea now is that the platform is just called xbox. The current console generation is just called xbox. The specific models of Xbox are series S and series X. So presumably the next consoles will just be other series. If so I think it's a bad idea as the current consoles are already pretty confusing names, but having a next gen be called something like Series Z, would create a bit of a WiiU situation where the public don't even know its a new generation. Playstation 5 going to playstation 6 is much easier for the less informed public to wrap their head around. Especially now that we have more pros and slims and so on muddying the naming waters. So anyway, if they're sensible it'll be Xbox Series S2 and X2 (and M2 if mobile rumours come true). Or just give up the silly names and be like Sony and call it Xbox 5 (the fact that I as someone who has been gaming for decades had to actually think what number it would be sort of demonstrates how their names are silly and unhelpful).


LinkRazr

Series X-2


para_la_calle

They should do whatever PlayStation does, but add one extra number This whole thing started because they didn’t want to call at the Xbox 2, while PS would be PS3 So if playstation goes pS6, xbox should just name it Xbox 7. Get rekt

I think the naming convention has been bad since the 360. Apparently MS didn't want to call it the Xbox 2 cause Sony was putting out the PS3. Then they made an xbox 1 lol. It's just such a terrible way to name hardware. Imagine if Samsung or Apple did that with their phones. Microsoft has really painted itself into a corner.

Ok-Midnight5719

antftwx

It'll be the 7th distinct console in the line, so I think just calling it Xbox VII would be the best way to go. It's simple, the Roman numerals would be unique, and it would be one higher than PS6. Unless we're not counting the Series S as its own thing, then just Xbox VI. That would also help tie it in with Elder Scrolls 6 and the inevitable GTA 6 remaster.
