LOL... Nothing is confirmed about Windows 13. The only thing Microsoft did was release a video with some concepts about what Windows will be like in 2030; and what caught my attention the most is that the mouse and keyboard will be replaced by voice commands with AI dominating the entire system. So we'll have to play OpenBOR modules screaming! Man, the future is truly bleak.
Indeed, that whole thing is pretty much made up from start to finish, especially the 128-bit nonsense. I have no idea where that part came from.
Yours is a bit off base too, though. Tactile controls are not going anywhere. Microsoft is researching voice commands and natural-language AI as an additional way to interact with the system, not as a replacement for physical peripherals. Keyboard, mouse, controller, touch, pen, eye tracking, adaptive switches, and other assistive devices are not going away.
Removing them would run directly into accessibility law, e.g., the ADA, and compliance requirements. Large portions of the user base either cannot use voice commands reliably or cannot use them at all: deaf users, hard-of-hearing users, speech-impaired users, nonverbal users, people with neurological conditions, people in noisy environments, and people in quiet shared spaces.
So no, we are not heading toward a future where everyone has to play OpenBOR modules by screaming commands at Windows - hilarious as that might be. Voice control may become more capable, but tactile and assistive controls are here to stay.

It's very challenging to come up with that idea into the system after a number of players' death event. I know you want it so bad.
