Microsoft has made a decision that many have been asking for a long time because it is true that the current generation, due to the problems of stock and the absence of units in stores, has allowed the life of the AAA developments of Xbox One and PS4 to be extended, so no one should be surprised that these things are decided. And the life of Xbox One, technically, has exceeded all expectations with almost a whole decade under its belt.
It is normal that when a new generation arrives, the previous one fades away and only has the support of some studies that seek to sell many units in times of lack of launches.
