Project Natal (pronounced "na-tal"(IPA: [naˈtal])) is the code name for a "controller-free gaming and entertainment experience" by Microsoft for the Xbox 360 video game platform. Based on an add-on peripheral for the Xbox 360 console, Project Natal enables users to control and interact with the Xbox 360 without the need to touch a game controller, in a natural user interface using gestures, spoken commands,[fn 1][1] or presented objects and images.[fn 2] The project is aimed at broadening the Xbox 360's audience beyond its typical base.[2][fn 3] Project Natal was first announced on 1 June at the 2009 Electronic Entertainment Expo. Microsoft said that over 1000 development kits began shipping to game developers that same day.[2]
Though Microsoft has not officially announced any price or release date projections for Project Natal,[2][3] it is expected to be released in late 2010.[4][5][6][7] Project Natal will reportedly also serve as the basis for a "new" Xbox 360.[fn 4]
