Xbox Infinity once again tipped as new console name

A non-games industry site is reporting that Xbox Infinity will indeed be the name of Microsoft’s next console.

International Business Times UK reports claims to have word from sources related to development of the new Xbox”.

That, quite literally, is it. The rest of the report is a rehash of other Xbox rumours that have been doing the rounds. It also cites rumours that West and Zampella’s Respawn Studios is developing a launch title for the new machine – which in MCV’s opinion is highly unlikely.

The Xbox Infinity branding (or Xbox∞) was first mentioned online as far back as July 2012 although a report earlier this month – which instead tipped Xbox Fusion as the most likely moniker – dismissed the Infinity reports.

Still, we’ll find out in less than two weeks. Microsoft will spill all of its next gen beans on May 21st.
