Microsoft is working on next-gen too, and they announced that this summer I believe, but at this point it doesn't look like it will be much different from Xbone X in terms of actual gaming power so you should probably be safe. Plus it's a couple of years off and publishers will need to work on compatible titles for it. So far Bethesda's confirmed. The biggest hardware upgrade for the next-gen PS will be native 4k, but Xbone X already has that, right? So it's all the other changes for the next-gen. Basically, making it less like a console and more like a giant smartphone that sits under your tv and plays Xbone X-type games or PS4 Pro-type games. If you bought the Xbone X because you wanted something to watch Netflix on other than your desktop, your laptop, your smartphone, your tablet, your tv, your Roku, your Firestick, and/or anything else, then maybe it will play Netflix that much better or you'll be able to tweet from it while watcihng Netflix and reading stock ticker updates on a split screen so you're watching Netflix and Vudu at the same time because hey, why not pay even less attention to more things? Or maybe you'd genuinely rather stream games at lower FPS, video and audio quality and more crashes and other glitches, paying for them without owning them.
But if you bought it for sheer gaming power, then right now it doesn't sound like the next-gen Xbox will be a significant upgrade. Or perhaps while developing these, Sony & Microsoft will begin to realize that consoles are far from dead. I thought this current generation had already proven that. Simply because VR doesn't sell like hotcakes doesn't mean consoles are dead -- it means the majority of gamers don't want to spend hundreds of dollars to have lower resolution, worse GPU performance, and lower FPS using a relatively new and still-developing technology with a small library of supported titles.
