Project Scorpio was announced at E3 last year and is slated for a winter 2017 release, just in time to fill oversized stockings across the globe.
Since last year's E3, we've learned a great deal about Microsoft's new console, mostly thanks to an unveiling of the console's specs conducted in partnership with Digital Foundry last month.
Scorpio is built with a GPU 4.5 times faster than that within the original Xbox One. It also features a more powerful CPU, and greater amounts of speedier RAM.
Digital Foundry's Richard Leadbetter saw a test set-up running a version of Forza Motorsport in 4K at 60fps during a visit to Xbox's Redmond campus.
The technical specs are out there, but Microsoft's information splurge in April fell short of a full reveal. The complete picture, including price, name and visual design, is expected at a press conference just before E3 next month.
Microsoft's pre-E3 press conference begins at 10am BST on June 11.
