Prototype of Xbox streaming device Keystone may be shown in photo

Xbox CEO Phil Spencer shared a photo on Monday, showing the possible prototype of the Keystone streaming device. It’s not clear whether it was Spencer’s intention to image the device.

Spencer congratulated Bethesda Monday marked the 25th anniversary of the Fallout series and shared a photo of a Vault Boy figure on one of its shelves. On the top shelf, next to the Xbox Series controller, is a white device with the Xbox logo visible. Xbox’s Twitter account jokingly responded to Spencer’s tweet asking “what exactly has been agreed about showing old prototypes on shelves.”

The device may be a prototype of the Keystone streaming device. Microsoft confirmed to Windows Central earlier this year that Keystone was intended to connect to a TV or monitor to play Xbox games through the Xbox Cloud Gaming game streaming service. With this, the user does not need an Xbox console. The site previously claimed that Keystone would be a dongle, but now writes based on the photo that the device appears to be a box.

However, the company said it had exited the current iteration of Keystone and “changed course.” Microsoft announced the Xbox Everywhere initiative in May, which Xbox wants to bring Cloud Gaming to smart TVs.
