Following the reveal of their smaller, more affordable Xbox Series S device earlier this week, all eyes were on the green gaming giant to confirm the details of their bulkier, more powerful machine. The Xbox Series X price has now been listed on the Xbox website. As early leaks had suggested, it’s hitting a price point of 500 dollars.
In addition to the $499 Xbox Series X price, Microsoft will offer an Xbox All Access payment model of $34.99 per month, for 24 months. This will set you up with the console, and also grant access to Xbox Game Pass, meaning you’ll be able to access all the first party titles released on the machine. The Xbox Series S, by comparison, will be available for $299 (£250), with a $25 per month Xbox All Access payment model available.
