Xbox One S Announced June 13, 2016

This video just opened the Xbox E3 Media Briefing. Enjoy:

That’s right a slimmer Xbox One with limited 4K support, HDR, and an integrated power supply is coming in August.  We don’t know all the details about the new console’s 4K capabilities but the video promises that video playback and streaming will be in native 4K.

Personally, I’m hoping for 4K disc support but I can’t tell yet if that’s part of the console’s ability from just watching the video.
