Microsoft has responded to reports claiming that Xbox One production has ceased, confirming that while its Xbox One X and Xbox One S All-Digital Edition are indeed officially discontinued, the Xbox One S is still being manufactured and sold.
Word that Microsoft’s current-gen console was no longer in production began to circulate on message boards late last week, and these initially unsubstantiated reports gained increasing credibility as a number of retailers, including Amazon and Target in the US (thanks Metro), began to list various Xbox One models as discontinued on their websites.
However, further confusion arose when Xbox console business planning lead Dan Tavares popped up on Twitter to suggest the listings were merely a result of high consumer demand for Xbox One and changes to SKU numbers.
