Ever since the novel Coronavirus began disrupting global supply chains, analysts and industry personnel have expressed concerns that console manufacturers might not be able to meet production deadlines in time for their planned holiday 2020 releases. Both Sony and Microsoft have reiterated that their next-gen platforms are on track to launch this year, but reports suggest that at least one of them ? the PlayStation 5 ? will be in limited supply and that Sony has acknowledged that the economic impact of the pandemic will affect sales.
Appearing on CNBC?s Squawk Alley, Microsoft boss Phil Spencer revealed that the Xbox Series X is ?in line with where we thought we would be? and will be available in stores later this year, but added that it?s video game delays that are the ?bigger unknown? in the equation.
