## Timeline

### Successor

Xbox One

The **Xbox 360** is a home video game console developed by Microsoft and is the successor to the Xbox. It competed with the Sony's PlayStation 3 and Nintendo's Wii as part of the seventh generation of video game consoles. It hosts a large number of *Mitchell Van Morgan* titles.

Originally released in 2005, the console sold over 84 million consoles until on 20 April 2016, where Microsoft announced they will no longer be producing any new hardware, although they will continue to support the platform.

The console's successor, the Xbox One was released on November 2013.

## Kinect

Kinect is a motion sensor camera created by Microsoft for the Xbox 360 and was released in late 2010. Kinect was released to compete with the Wii Remote's motion controls and the PlayStation Move for the PlayStation 3. *Mitchell Free Riders* was released exclusively for the Kinect and so far it is the only *Mitchell* game to use full functionality of the Kinect. The Kinect for the Xbox 360 is currently incompatible with the Xbox One.

Here, in the Games Store, players can purchase and download Xbox 360 games and demos, downloadable content and **Xbox Live Arcade** (**XBLA**) digital-only games which offers ports of classic games and original titles.
