The console is still far away, but the games lineup for the upcoming Xbox Scorpio is “shaping up very well” according to Microsoft’s head of Xbox.

　　Microsoft Xbox head, Phil Spencer, took to Twitter to answer a fan question regarding the launch lineup for the Xbox Scorpio project. Spencer was asked whether there will be a Halo title when the Scorpio launches. While Spencer didn’t gave a direct answer to the question asked, he did state that the development teams are getting up to speed with 4K gaming, and the games portfolio for the Xbox Scorpio is shaping up nicely.

　　Portfolio is shaping up very well. It's great that teams are getting up to speed with 4K gaming now on PC to prepare for Scorpio.
