Game Informer posted some information regarding the launch dates of some of the games on this list (which may reveal the launch of the Xbox One:
Here's what we know about the launch dates. Watch Dogs is currently slated for November 19 on current-generation consoles. It's not inconceivable that Ubisoft would release the next generation version first, but it's unlikely that Activision would release Call of Duty into the wild on Xbox One before Xbox 360. Any later than November 19, and Microsoft would mess up retailer bundles that include Watch Dogs, as some people might choose not to wait. This likely puts the release date as early as November 5, and probably no later than November 19. (Admittedly, this only narrows the window slightly.)
EA announced today that Need for Speed: Rivals, an Xbox One launch title, has a November 21, 2013, release date. This seems relevant, and it could hint at the launch date for Xbox One.
