Xbox Series S OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED, $299, £249. 512 GB NVME SSD, 60% Smaller than XSX, 1440p up to 120 FPS, Ray-Tracing, All Digital and More

the different color for the fan exhaust is there to make sure that people don’t put stuff on top of it :smirk:

Yeah it’s an incredible price for a next gen console! Probably going to wait for the official specs breakdown from Microsoft/digital foundry before making my 100% final choice (just to see what the major differences are between X and S) but I reckon I’ll most likely end up buying one at this price (so cheap I’d probably buy one for my best friend as a Christmas present!).

It’s going to be really interesting to see just how long this stays in stock for. If Microsoft advertise the strengths of this, I think it’ll definitely sell out this Christmas at least here in the Uk

512GB SSD helps explain how they’ve priced this so low.

Interesting that they are marketing up to 1440p 120fps.

That ad is fucking brilliant. That is the type of marketing MS needs to do more often. Explains everything

Flipping hell. I go to bed and wake up and see the Series S has been announced on a random Tuesday :joy:.

The price is great and pretty outrageous for a next-gen console and lined up what I have been saying for months that people are going to be surprised how aggressive MS will price this system.

What does he even mean with this? I really doubt Sony is gonna go under 499. And their digital only with those specs? No way under 299. No way at 299.

I can totally see that. If Sony prices the DE at $399 for example, I think MS will go with $250 for the XSS and match them at $399 for the XSX.

Definitely gonna grab an S for the daughter’s room to replace her Minecraft One S

I don’t think so. If Sony had that price. They would be the first to reveal it, cause that will be extremely good price for PS5. The more I think the more I learn towards PS5 being 499 minimum.
