Microsoft's next-gen console Xbox Project Scorpio is getting some big show this week. Microsoft this week announced plans to show off Project Scorpio's 4K gaming capabilities. In doing these, the software company has picked two high-profile gaming titles.

Rockstar Games' upcoming action adventure game "Red Dead Redemption 2" and PlayGround Games' "Forza Motorsport 7" will be joining the software company this week in showing off the Scorpio's 4K capability. The Redmond-based software company will be reading the popular racing video game "Forza Motorsport 7" for the upcoming gaming console Xbox Project Scorpio in the next few weeks. Reports said that racing title looks "utterly stunning" in the true 4K.

The 4K gaming news comes from marketing materials that include titles Microsoft wants to use to exemplify Scorpio's amazing six-teraflops computer power along with its 4K capabilities. To get more about the full list of the titles that will appear on Xbox Project Scorpio, check out the UK-based The Express, which currently got the full details of the planned 4K on Scorpio.

As reported earlier by multiple websites, Microsoft's next-gen gaming console sports will be featuring an amazing 8-core CPU that capable of 6 teraflops of immense computing power. That's about 4.5 times as powerful as the previous console, the Xbox One. In addition, to supporting for true 4K gaming and virtual reality, Microsoft has also announced that Project Scorpio will be supporting 4K Blu-ray, something that the big software company was quick to point out when it was revealed recently that Sony's PS4 Pro wouldn't support 4K Blu-ray.

As for the full specs and additional information, Microsoft has yet to decide if it will show more details of Xbox Project Scorpio on the big E3 2017 event, which slated to take place this coming June. Last February, Microsoft announced at a press event that the company's upcoming E3 event will be moving on Sunday, instead of the traditional first Monday of the event.

Microsoft is expected to reveal more about the gaming console at the upcoming E3 event on June. Xbox chief Phil Spencer recently shared on Twitter that he want to give its games more time at E3 event.

Microsoft first introduced the upcoming gaming console, Xbox Project Scorpio, at last year's E3 event. But there some intriguing things that has been seen from the company, and that it's behaving differently. Some analysts said that Microsoft has been slow at ramping up the hype for the company's upcoming next-gen gaming console. However, the software giant has recently confirmed that the upcoming gaming console will be launch later this year.

Until now, there still no clear indication that the company will be revealing the full specs and details about the upcoming console this coming June event. The crowd will likely get more about the upcoming Xbox Project Scorpio, including the full specs and pricing at the console's launch date, this coming Holiday 2017.
