The amount of leaks concerning the Xbox One is quite high today and a brand new report has appeared, this time with the release schedule of Microsoft's next-gen console in different tier 2 and tier 3 countries that didn't get the device in November of last year.

Due to supply constraints, Microsoft was forced to release the Xbox One console in just 13 territories on November 22, 2013, including the United States and Canada, but also a few select European countries.

The company promised at that time that other regions, classified as tier 2, would get the Xbox One sometime in 2014, but it failed to offer any actual release periods or time frames.

Now, thanks to a major leak on NeoGAF, an apparent launch schedule for the Xbox One in 2014 has appeared.

It seems that Microsoft is planning to debut the next-gen console in two waves this year, one happening in April and the other in October.

The company is aiming first at various Asian regions, some of the European countries where it was forced to delay the Xbox One, like Sweden, Norway, Denmark, or Finland, but also a few South American territories.

In October, other European countries will be getting the Xbox One, but also a few from the Middle East, including the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and more.

Check out the leaked release schedule below.

April 2014

Japan South Korea Taiwan Singapore Hong Kong Russia Sweden Norway Finland Denmark Colombia Chile Argentina

October 2014

By far the biggest country in which the company will release the Xbox One is China, as apparently it will be among the first big consoles released in the Asian territory after the removal of ban on game consoles.
