The next Xbox event is scheduled for April 26th, I've been told by someone I trust. Microsoft may change date, obvs, but diarise tentatively — Rob Crossley (@Rob_Crossley_) February 24, 2013

Not long ago we heard that Microsoft was looking to announce the next generation of the Xbox platform in April and to build on that information, it is being reported that April 26th is the announcement date for the console.

The information comes from Rob Crossley who is the associate editor of computerandvideogames.com/uk and states the information is coming from someone he does trust. We cannot verify the information at this time but it does line-up with some previously rumored information. Of course, we can’t ignore too that some had said the event would happen in March.

Seeing that Sony partially pulled back the curtains on its console but at the same time really didn’t tell us much about its future plans other than showing a few games off, we expect Microsoft to avoid that mistake and do a full reveal of the console at its event.

April is not that far off and if you want a reminder of what the specs of the console will be, you can read about it here or more information about the next gen Kinect can be found here.
