Microsoft has announced significant price rises for Xbox consoles, blaming the ongoing “components crisis.”
Xbox console price rises June 2026:
Xbox Series S 512GB: $399.99 ---> $499.99
Xbox Series S 1TB: $449.99 ---> $599.99
Xbox Series X 1TB Digital: $599.99 ---> $749.99
Xbox Series X 1TB: $649.99 ---> $799.99
That’s why I sold my Xbox and ps honestly and moved back to steam. I’ve got hundreds of games, many I’ve barely played.
At this point my Xbox exists for exactly three reasons.
1: BluRay player
2: Borderlands 4 with a friend who only has Xbox
3: Stream my PC to the TV with Moonlight so I can play PC games on the couch.
