Phil Spencer, head of Xbox, discusses the significance of the Xbox Series S in game development. He argues that the console's focus on performance and portability provides developers with an advantage in a market increasingly dominated by handheld and lower-powered devices. Spencer also highlights the Series S's capability to run current-gen games well.
