Microsoft is gearing up for the holidays with the launch of three new Xbox Series X/S consoles that were first announced during the Xbox Games Showcase 2024. These consoles will be released on October 15, which means we don't have long to wait.
Not only that, but the pre-orders are now live for the Xbox Series S – 1TB in Robot White, Xbox Series X – 1TB Digital Edition in Robot White, and Xbox Series X – 2TB Galaxy Black Special Edition. So, whether you’re looking to upgrade your current setup or snag the latest gaming tech, now’s the perfect time to secure your pre-order.
- Xbox Series S – 1TB in Robot White: $349 @ Best Buy
- Xbox Series X – 1TB Digital Edition in Robot White: $449 @ Best Buy
- Xbox Series X – 2TB Galaxy Black Special Edition: $599 @ Best Buy
For a quick refresher, the new Xbox Series S 1TB in Robot White is a blend of the original Series S and last year's Carbon Black model. It offers the same budget-friendly performance with a sleek white finish and a larger 1TB SSD. The all-digital Xbox Series X, which has been rumored for a while, is also launching in October. This version removes the 4K Blu-ray disc drive and comes in a striking Robot White color. Otherwise, it’s the same powerful console as before.
Then we have the most premium offering — the Xbox Series X 2TB Galaxy Black Special Edition. This console doubles the storage of the base model and features a unique design inspired by constellations, with a black console covered in grey and green dots. The matching controller, with a Velocity Green design and unique D-pad, is exclusive to this bundle, which will be available in "limited quantities".
As of August 21, it seems as though Best Buy and Walmart are the only retailers (Walmart only has listings for two consoles right now), but other stores like Amazon will probably put their listings live very soon.
Of course, we will keep this page updated with all the buying links you need as new listings become available at different stores (especially Amazon). We'll also be on the lookout for restocks just so you have a chance to grab your desired console.
