But before we get to the heart of the matter, let's take a look back at its history, starting in 2001 with the first generation, then with the Xbox 360 in 2005, which popularized online gaming. In 2013, the Xbox One enriched its machine with applications and streaming functionalities. The latest generation, the Xbox Series(in 2020), marks a major technological advance, with its reduced loading times, extended backward compatibility and processing power, aimed at enhancing the console gaming experience.

Microsoft has worked on exclusives such as Forza Horizon 5 and Starfield, which exploit the console's graphical and technical capabilities to offer visually immersive worlds and enriched gaming experiences. Subscribers to the Xbox Game Pass service also benefit from immediate access to numerous games, adding further flexibility for gamers.
