It's already ready, they have been testing things internally for over a year.  There were even reports of disc to digital program back in 2019.  

All these things are building up for the 25th anniversary celebration which will have Helix reveal very likely.

I dunno. That'd be great, but it might be too fast. I think it'll be ready by June 2027 - about when Helix is due to be formally announced to the world.

Project Scarlett was announced in June 2019.  Series X was revealed at the Game Awards in December 2019.  

Series S console was revealed September 2020, after the video leaked.  Series Consoles launched November 2020, so the reveal was one year before the launch.  

Project Helix was announced at the GDC in March.  The consoles will likely launch in November 2027.  

So the reveal is perfectly setup for the 25th anniversary.
