Grab Xbox Series X and Series S at All-Time Low Prices for Black Friday – CNET [CNET]

Both Walmart and Best Buy are offering stellar discounts for gamers looking to snag next-gen Xbox consoles at a great price.

With less than a week to go until Black Friday, retailers are pulling out all the stops. Thousands of items are already on sale, and that means it’s a great time to snag some of those big-ticket items on your wish list. If you’ve been holding out on a next-gen gaming console, now’s the time to snag one at a great price. Both Walmart and Best Buy have slashed prices on the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S to all-time low prices — but be quick, because these deals won’t likely stick around.  

If you’re looking to spend the least amount of money, you’ll want to go with the all-digital Xbox Series S. Walmart has the Xbox Series S bundle for $249 right now — that includes the 512GB console and wireless controller, along with a three-month membership to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate so that you can start playing as soon as you get it set up. That’s a $51 savings on the Series S and the lowest price we’ve seen. Best Buy currently has the same deal available for just $1 more. 

But if you prefer having the option to play game disks, you’ll want to grab the Xbox Series X. It supports up to 8K resolution, comes with 1TB of storage and has an optical drive. Right now Walmart has the Xbox Series X Diablo IV bundle, which comes with the console as well as a digital Diablo IV voucher available for just $439. That’s a $61 savings on the console alone and the lowest price we’ve seen. Best Buy’s deal on this set isn’t as quite as impressive at $450, but that’s still a solid savings. 

If you’re just looking for the console, Walmart is offering an Xbox Series X for $449, which still saves you $51. Again, Best Buy is offering a similar deal for just $1 more right now — but it gets better. If you get the Xbox Series X from Best Buy ($450), you’ll also get a free $50 Best Buy gift card with your purchase, essentially saving you a value of $100. The only catch is that you’ll have to use in-store pickup and supplies are limited, so you’ll want to act fast to score this offer.
