Xbox Series X and S price and release date confirmed - and how to pre-order
It's a bit cheaper than everyone first thought too.
Microsoft has revealed the Xbox Series X price and release as well as when you can pre-order the new console.
The Xbox Series X will be released on 10th November priced at $499/£499.
Gamers can pre-order from 22nd September for both the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S.
If you go via the Microsoft Xbox All Access payment plan the Xbox Series X it's priced at $34.99/£20.99 a month for 24 months.
The Xbox Series S ($299/£249.99) is also on the Xbox All Access programme payment plan for $24.99/£20.99 a month.
Phil Spencer, the Xbox boss, revealed the news on the Xbox Series X website not long after the Xbox Series S info was confirmed.
There are no big surprises in the reveal, as the date lands about when everyone expected and the price isn't a big shock - it's actually less than many expected.
The Xbox Series X is higher spec, on par with a Gaming PC so the price matches that.
We're also still waiting to hear from Sony about the PS5 price...
