The cheaper Series S will not have a disc drive and will have lower specifications than the Series X, relying on users to download and stream games.

Despite this Microsoft said the Series S will 'deliver everything that is core to next-generation gaming - faster load times, higher frame rates, and richer, more dynamic worlds'.

The main difference between the two versions is the graphics resolution, with the Series S graphics processing unit not as powerful as the Series X, and being unable to output 4K video.
