The Verge reports that the new white discless Xbox Series X is priced at $449.99. The fresh aesthetic mirrors the "robot white" finish of the more compact Xbox Series S. It also offers a sleek, minimalist look for gamers who prefer digital-only gameplay.
Despite rumors of internal upgrades, Microsoft has confirmed that the only significant change is the removal of the disc drive, aligning with the industry's ongoing shift toward digital content.
For those seeking more storage and a premium feel, the 2TB "Galaxy Black" special edition Xbox Series X stands out. Priced at $599.99, this model not only doubles the storage of the standard Xbox Series X but also introduces a striking new design that could appeal to collectors and hardcore gamers alike.
On the more budget-friendly side, the 1TB Xbox Series S will be available for $349.99. This model offers more storage than the original 512GB Series S, addressing one of the main criticisms from users who felt constrained by the smaller drive.
All three models are set to launch in the U.S. on Oct. 15, with other markets, including Europe, to follow on Oct. 29. Preorders are now open, and Microsoft has assured that these consoles will be available in all current Xbox-supported regions.
The timing of these launches is strategic, coinciding with a particularly active period for Xbox Game Pass. October will see the release of highly anticipated titles such as Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.
With these releases, Microsoft is positioning its expanded hardware lineup as a gateway to a holiday season packed with gaming.
