In an internal memo obtained by The Verge, Spencer clarified that most of the documents are "over a year old and our plans have evolve." This means that Microsoft might probably updated some of the plans as it gets nearer to the possible launch.

Spencer also released a statement on X saying that the company will share the "real plans" once they are ready. "It is hard to see our team's work shared in this way because so much has changed and there's so much to be excited about right now, and in the future," the Xbox chief wrote.
