Tencent, Intel and Haier announce the Blade BOX: a games console running Windows 10
Following rumours that an upgraded PlayStation 4 is on the way, a new games console is coming into the horizon. Riot Games, under the arm of Tencent, along with Intel and Haier, have announced the Tencent TGP BOX, which will be released as the Blade BOX, a games console designed to change traditional gaming.
In the way of specifications, all we know so far is that it will use Windows 10 as its operating system, with the Tencent Games Platform being the overlay that users will make use of. It will also come with sixth-generation Intel processors, namely the i3, i5 and i7.
You can see the look of the console and its controller above; it is distinctly different to the type of console design that we've become accustomed too, with it featuring more curved edges and a different front layout to the back. The controller is reminiscent of the Xbox One controller.
