    The Future of Physical Media. Official way to submit a next-gen Xbox proposal?


    Hey fellow Xbox Insiders & community!

    I’ve developed a technical & strategic proposal regarding physical media evolution, hardware backward compatibility, and next-gen console ecosystem integration.

    Because the proposal involves proprietary hardware concepts and intellectual property, I want to follow Microsoft's proper formal intake protocols rather than posting the details publicly on open forums or general feedback sites.

    Does anyone have recommendations on how to officially reach out to the Xbox Business Development, Hardware Architecture, or Product Engineering teams for proposal evaluation?

    Any advice or points of contact would be greatly appreciated!

    Will Xbox One games be 100% instant download in the future or will it always be a choice to buy a disc or to download the game?

    Have to agree with Dirt. They are trying to slowly move to digital downloads but I think it'll be the NEXT next gen at least before we lose physical media

    Anyone else have a hard time getting used to buying digital for AAA games?

    Don't Post much around here anymore but I have not purchased any physical Media for the Xbox One (and even late 360 unless it was the only way).

    Such an archaic outdated form of delivering Media Content (Physical Media) it's almost sad people still hold onto it. But meh, I'll just do my part in shaping the future buy supporting it with my wallet.

    I have Disc versions of games on Xbox One, how will i play them on Series S?

    Hey TechNo1geek

    Thank you for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums. We understand that you are inquiring about using physical media on the Series S variation of the next-gen console.

    If you wish to play any physical media on the next-gen console, you will need to acquire the Series X variation.

    As you have already been provided with all the info available, we will now be locking this thread.

    If you have any other questions or concerns that differ from this matter, please, feel free to create a new thread and we will cater to you there.

    Thank you for being a part of the Xbox Family and we wish you a wonderful day!

    Which DEVS won the XB1 launch titles?Best game atm discussion.

    AC 4 ??? It 's a current gen game with upgraded graphics....Nothing really improve on Xbox one...Same issues than current gen versions.It's not a bad game but no "next gen feeling" in AC4....

    Forza motorsport 5 ,they improve graphics,better cars physics,better driving feeling and drivatars shows what we might expect in future AI....A next gen feeling.

    Dead Rising 3 better story,better gameplay and megafun....
