We thought we'd have to wait until E3, while the most optimistic suggested a separate event reveal in may: according to a new rumor seems to be that we will have to wait a lot less for the revelation of Project Scorpio . The insider and blog owner Windows Central Jez Corden has revealed on Twitter that the console will be shown very soon.

And he made clear that, with "very soon", he meant this week (the post is on a Saturday, and said "next week", which means next week, that of 3 April), suggesting that Thursday might be the day when all will be revealed. For those who were wondering, Jez also made clear that this is not an April Fool's joke, since it would be pretty sad to do. He also stated that his sources could also be wrong, so there is no absolute certainty that this will happen.

There is, however, an interesting information that the insider reported: the revelation of the console will not be made directly from Microsoft, but from a third party site which was sold the exclusive. And to date the only sites that do this kind of exclusive reveal are IGN and Game Informer, which leads us to think that one of these two soon will begin to reveal much information about the new console.

Corden is finally intervened on the NeoGAF forums to explain that last week an important site visited Microsoft to view Project Scorpio, and that the game shown him as proof of the capacity of the machine was Forza Motorsport 7 , which of course turned to 4 k. Then the reveal coming should treat both the console that this first title.

This tells us that, since he's talked extensively in advance, Xbox E3 Conference should not dwell too much on the console hardware, nor Force 7, giving Spencer & associates a chance to focus more on all other games.
