You can now get an Xbox Series X console for just £360 (or £330 refurbished) and an Xbox Series for as little £190 thanks to Black Friday.
It was already predicted that the Xbox Series X would be £130 cheaper this Black Friday, and since leaker billbil-kun never seems to get anything wrong, it’s no surprise to find that’s exactly what’s happened – give or take £10 or so.
They never said anything about the Xbox Series S but that is also around 25% off at some retailers. Strangely, the discounts for both consoles do vary quite a bit, with some being slightly more expensive, so don’t just take the first offer you see.
So far the bundles are relatively limited, and only based on official ones, but there’s still some good offers to be had, especially for the Xbox Series S Starter Pack.
Cheapest Xbox Series X console deals and bundles
The three retailers selling the console for £360 are Amazon, GAME, and Smyths. Although once the other realise what’s going on they’re likely to decrease their prices too.
Given what a good deal this is, stock is likely to become a problem before Friday, so we’d act sooner rather than later.
Surprisingly, there’s relatively few bundles so far, beyond variations on the official ones with Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, which implies some sort of edict from Microsoft preventing others.
Xbox Series X console – £359.99 (25% off) at Amazon, GAME, and Smyths
Xbox Series X refurbished console – £329.99 (21% off) at Amazon
Xbox Series X console + Diablo 4 – £369.99 at GAME
Xbox Series X console + Forza Horizon 5 bundle + Star Wars Jedi: Survivor – £411.94 (26% off) at Amazon
Xbox Series X console + Starfield – £415.98 at Amazon
Xbox Series X console + Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (physical copy) – £421.98 (23% off) at Amazon
Xbox Series X console + Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (digital code) – £429.98 (21% off) at Amazon
Xbox Series X console + Forza Horizon 5 bundle + Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (digital code) – £439.98 (21% off) at Amazon
Cheapest Xbox Series S console deals and bundles
The situation is similar for the Xbox Series S, which is £190 at quite a few different retailers but not all of them. There’re also not many bundles but the Starter Pack is £10 cheaper than the others at GAME.
Xbox Series S console – £189.99 (24% off) at Amazon and Smyths
Xbox Series S Starter Pack – £189.99 at GAME
Despite the massive discounts, the PlayStation 5 has had similar price cuts and can also be had for £380 at many retailers, although there is no PlayStation equivalent of the Xbox Series S so that’s definitely the cheapest next gen console of the week.
