Microsoft is trying hard to make a better market position and therefore it is rumored that the company has now decided to come up with their gaming console Xbox 720 in April 2013 that will be Microsoft’s reply to Sony PlayStation 4. The console gaming devices are becoming popular and so is the competition where two top rivals are trying to beat each other out. Although, initially it was said that Microsoft would announce the new Xbox 720 in Christmas 2013 but some insiders claim that Microsoft does not want to feel left out in the market and offer more space to Sony with PlayStation 4 already in the market.

Microsoft has announced that they have worked hard on the new Xbox 720 and the most important thing is that they have tried to eliminate all the hardware failures that haunted Xbox 360 users.

Although, there is nothing that Microsoft has revealed so far but rumors suggest that the console will have AMD 7000 Series graphics which is based on the 28nm Graphics Core Next technology. Some of the sources have said that Microsoft is basically trying to combine the power of two computers into one for the Xbox 720.

Microsoft has decided that the console will be out towards the end of the year 2013 but just before the Christmas holiday season begins. This will be somewhat on the same lines as Sony PlayStation 4. It is rumored that the new Xbox 720 will debut at E3 in April 2013 and will allow gamers and players to have a first look at how the entire console works. Microsoft has also decided that they would pack Xbox 720 with Blu-ray drive and DVR features where the company is trying to lure casual gamers that are not only interested in games but in movies as well. The leaked documents show that Microsoft will price the console at $299 which is a bit higher than Sony PlayStation 4.
