While the announcement of the "Xbox Series S" has garnered much attention, the price and release date of the "Xbox Series X" has also been leaked
Sources familiar with Microsoft's Xbox plans told Windows Central that the Xbox Series X will be priced at $499 and will launch on Tuesday, November 10 This means that the Xbox Series X will be priced between $400 and $500 and will be available in November, just in time for the holiday season And this is in line with the rumors we heard earlier that it will be released in time for the launch of the PS5
We had thought the Xbox Series X would be a bit cheaper, given that it is said to undercut the PS5, which is expected to be $500 However, since the Xbox Series X has a more powerful GPU power of 12 teraflops versus the PS5's 1028 teraflops, $500 seems a fair price
The Xbox Series X also promises 1TB of fast SSD storage that can be expanded with custom external SSDs, ray tracing capabilities, 4K gaming at 60 frames per second, and dedicated audio hardware It also has the potential to deliver up to 8K resolution and 120 fps frame rates during gaming
Furthermore, the backward compatibility of the Xbox Series X is very comprehensive and will cover all three previous generations of the Xbox In short, the Xbox Series X will be the Xbox that rules them all, not bad for a $499 game box
If $499 for a game console seems a bit steep, Microsoft will offer the Xbox Series X with the Xbox All Access subscription service for $35 per month This will provide not only the console, but also access to Xbox Game Pass, which will offer a wide selection of Xbox games, as well as games from the next generation Xbox
Pricing has not been officially announced by Microsoft, but we are confident that this leak is correct Therefore, it is up to Sony to reveal the price of the PS5 We are eager to see if it will rival the Xbox Series X or try to undercut it
