But while it's slimmed down on physical space, it's loaded up with even more digital space. Microsoft stated that it would come with up to 2TB of internal storage for all of your games and media.

The new console comes with a brand new controller You'll find textured grips on the handles, so your sweaty hands don't slip. It's also said to have an increased range, just in case you like to sit really far away from your TV.

The new Xbox One S will go on sale this August with an MSRP of $299, making it not only the smallest, but the cheapest Xbox One available.
