Microsoft first announced the Xbox One S back at E3 earlier this year, and now a release date of August 2nd has been announced by Major Nelson. The initial launch will consist of the 2TB Xbox One S launch edition in select regions, and all pre-orders will arrive on August 2nd so there’s still time to get yours in.

The updated console is 40% smaller than the Xbox One and includes a built in power supply, and a newly added IR blaster. In addition, the new console supports 4K Ultra HD with HDR for Blu-ray and video streaming. Games like Gears of War 4Forza Horizon 3, and Scalebound will also feature HDR support which gives an even higher contrast ratio between darks and lights.
