Oh, to be a fly on the wall in Redmond today. It seems Microsoft has accidentally published a pile of its own highly confidential documents, in the context of its legal battle with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) over the Activision merger.
The unredacted documents were uploaded Friday to the website of the District Court of the Northern District of California, which is hearing the case, as part of a wider release of redacted information. And this incident really is a doozy. One of the documents details Microsoft’s Xbox roadmap, revealing the design and specs of a revamped, disk-free Series X console that will apparently drop next year, together with a new controller codenamed "Sebille." The next-gen Xbox will come out in 2028, it seems.
