The Xbox Series X will be missing the optical S/PDIF audio output that was present on the Xbox One and Xbox 360 hardware lines.
The digital audio port was visible on images of a prototype casing for the Xbox Series X that leaked in January . That port was missing from some ( but not all ) of the updated images of the Series X shown in promotional materials Microsoft released earlier this week .
Windows Central and IGN's Ryan McCaffrey have now confirmed with Microsoft that the S/PDIF output will indeed be absent from retail Series X units.
