— games for Xbox One — Microsoft's eighth-generation home consoles. The original Xbox One was released in the fall of 2013, with updates in 2016 (Xbox One S), 2017 (Xbox One X with support for VR headsets and glasses), and 2019 (Xbox One S All-Digital — without an optical disc drive). The direct competitor of this line is Sony's PlayStation 4.In fact, Xbox One is less of a gaming console and more of a full-fledged media center: it can function as a media player, as well as act as a "middleman" between a TV set-top box and the screen, providing additional functionality (in particular, recommendations and voice control). Its gaming equipment is notable for the updated Xbox 360 gamepad and an improved version of the Kinect motion sensor. Games are distributed both on Blu-ray discs and through the online service Xbox Games Store, with the online storage supported by the Windows 10 operating system, allowing games to be purchased via PC. Shortly after the release of the original Xbox One, the creators abandoned regional locks and the need for a constant Internet connection. The console is backward compatible with select games from earlier Xbox generations, although the release of such games was discontinued in 2019.
