Microsoft is rumored to be developing an Xbox handheld device, potentially to be announced this year. This handheld, reportedly called 'Keenan', will be created in partnership with a PC manufacturer experienced in gaming. It aims to simplify the Windows experience for handhelds, drawing on Xbox design elements and featuring a launcher suited for controllers. The plans align with Microsoft's broader goal of merging the best of Xbox with Windows, as expressed by their VP, Jason Ronald, at a recent gaming event.
It took a few years of dealing with poorly optimized handheld PCs, but Microsoft may finally be working on an Xbox handheld.
The company is partnering with a PC maker to build a handheld, codenamed 'Keenan,' that will feature Xbox design elements and run Windows 11.
Microsoft wants to simplify Windows and make it more console-like for handhelds, hoping to bring 'the best of Xbox and Windows together.'
Phil Spencer has shown interest in handheld devices, indicating that Microsoft is experimenting with prototypes and may eventually offer a first-party handheld.
