It may not feel like it right now, but soon enough we'll be looking back on the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 as "last-gen" consoles.

Both Sony and Microsoft are deep into development of next-generation game consoles, and Microsoft outright revealed its new console back in December: The Xbox Series X is scheduled to launch during "holiday 2020."

Microsoft continued its next-gen console rollout in a new video released on Thursday, which showcased some of the first games coming to next-gen — including a brand-new "Assassin's Creed" game.
