Today marks 20 years since Microsoft entered the video game console market with the release of the original Xbox. And to commemorate the milestone, Microsoft announced a documentary mini-series focused on the history of the tech giant's first gaming console.
Power On: The Story of Xbox will release on December 13 and will consist of six parts focusing on the formation of the original Xbox and those involved in aiding Microsoft into entering the video game console market.
The documentary will show fans a behind-the-scenes look into the early days before the original Xbox was released on November 11, 2001. Microsoft notes the mini-series will be an "untold story of the people behind the box, glitches and all."
The announcement comes as part of Xbox's 20th anniversary celebration stream. Among other announcements that appeared today, Microsoft announced that more than 70 games released on the original Xbox or Xbox 360 are now backwards compatible, including Skate 2 and the Max Payne series.
