Video game hardware maker Microsoft might not be ready to offer an exact launch date for the Xbox One home console, but the team is offering potential buyers a chance to take a look at the official display design that will be used in its stores for the next-gen home console.

Gamers will be able to take a look at the device itself and all its accessories, but they will not be able to touch it or get any hands-on time with this unit.

An official representative from Microsoft comments on the video by saying, "The Xbox One at the Microsoft retail store is a display model to show customers the specs and content of the Xbox One pre-order."

The Xbox One will be available on all major markets in November and on secondary markets in 2014.

The rival PlayStation 4 from Sony is confirmed for November 15 in the US and two weeks later in Europe.
