Tuesday, May 21 2013 @ 08:13 PM BST

Microsoft has unveiled the Xbox One which will go on sale later this year.

This next-generation console was shown off alongside a new Kinect sensor and a redesigned gamepad.

The US firm described the voice and gesture-controlled machine as an "all-in-one" system offering games, live TV, movies and music.

Xbox One - Next Generation Console

Call of Duty Ghosts, played on a Xbox One, will be the first time in 10 years the console players can get a truly new gameplay experience. Watch the Official Call of Duty: Ghosts Reveal Trailer here.

New features

The new machine sees Microsoft add a Blu-ray drive and Skype functionality to its console, built in feedback into its gamepad triggers, and upgrades its Kinect camera sensor to 1080p high definition resolution.

It said the Kinect would allow the device to better analyse body movements allowing users to more accurately control game characters and navigate other entertainment options.

"When you're exercising, it can read your heartbeat," claimed the firm.

New tools will also allow users to record and edit gameplay so clips can be easily uploaded to the web.

EA Sports was first to announce new titles for the machine revealing Fifa 14, Madden 25, NBA Live 14 and the fighting game UFC would all launch on the platform within the next 12 months using a new games engine called Ignite.

It said the new machine allowed it to carry out four times as many calculations a second as the Xbox 360 and 10 times more "animation depth and detail".

“Infinity Ward set the gold standard for first-person action for a generation, and they’re going to do it again with Call of Duty: Ghosts,” said Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg. “Ghosts delivers an all-new story, all-new characters, an all-new Call of Duty world, all powered by a next generation Call of Duty engine, which is a leap forward for the franchise. Infinity Ward is going all-in to create the next generation of Call of Duty worthy of the world’s greatest fans."

Today Activision showed off the game’s official box art and logo as well as a live action trailer hinting at what Ghosts has to offer. So Activision has now officially announced the next CoD title; Call of Duty: Ghosts. Set for release on November 5th, CoD: Ghosts comes from the original Call of Duty development studio Infinity Ward and will hit Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC ( and expect this new CoD title will be the game that has to help sell the new Xbox....)

“Everyone was expecting us to make Modern Warfare 4, which would have been the safe thing to do," said Infinity Ward executive producer Mark Rubin, "but we're not resting on our laurels. We saw the console transition as the perfect opportunity to start a new chapter for Call of Duty. So we're building a new sub-brand, a new engine, and a lot of new ideas and experiences for our players. We can't wait to share them with our community."

Activision hints that much more will be coming during Microsoft’s announcement of the next Xbox on May 21st. More about CoD:Ghosts then, plus get "an exclusive first look at the game." UPDATE 5-21 : The Official Call of Duty: Ghosts Reveal Trailer !

MapModNews Extra :

With the arrival of the new $ony Xbox One (and it’s about time....) Game Development studios can now use more advanced game engines. The old Xbox was holding them back. And again it will be a Call of Duty title that has to make people wanting to switch to this new console. So a huge $$$$ deal for Activision.
