The Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 are primed for a holiday 2020 debut. Microsoft has officially confirmed that the Xbox Series X will launch on November 10 at an estimated retail price of $499, as announced on the Xbox website.
This announcement follows the reveal of the Xbox Series S pricing and date. To secure your console at launch, pre-orders open on September 22. Note that the $499 price is an estimated retail figure and subject to potential changes.
Key features include native 4K gaming support right out of the box, with 8K readiness for future titles. It packs a 1TB SSD for ample storage and lightning-fast load times.
The innovative split motherboard design distributes components across boards for superior cooling, addressing past issues like the Xbox 360's red ring of death.
Xbox All Access offers financing at $34.99 per month for 24 months. Similar to the Xbox One program, it likely bundles a 24-month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription for instant gaming access.
With Microsoft leading the charge, attention turns to Sony's PS5 response. Xbox All Access is expanding, with rumors of tripling supported countries soon.
