Xbox Series S officially revealed with price and trailer

4.1
The price, look and design of Xbox Series S have been officially confirmed following leaks.

Update: As expected, Microsoft has made it official. The company confirmed this morning that Xbox Series S is indeed priced $300/£250/€300, and that it delivers “next-gen performance” in the “smallest” Xbox form factor. More details, it promises, will be revealed soon.

The official shot doesn’t reveal anything new, but it does confirm the lack of a disc drive.


For those unfamiliar, Xbox Series S is the official name of Lockhart, a smaller, less powerful sibling to Series X. Reports indicate it’s a 4-teraflop machine that uses the same CPU as in Series X, paired with a less powerful GPU and less RAM. It’s said to be designed for 1080p and 1440p gaming, whereas Series X can deliver 4K.

I can only assume each of these consoles will try to somewhat leverage the cloud to handle computation. $299 for "1440p up to 144fps" performance is crazy. They are surely making a loss per console and plan to make it up with services.

Mike 299$ people are gonna love that for sure!


It's smart as hell Microsoft has gone for the most powerful on one end and the best value on the other. Phil Spencer is a legitimate genius if the Series X ends up being priced under the top end PS5 this shoots Xbox right back into the race again with Gamepass and full backwards compatibility on top of this they're not messing around. They're already working on getting 1st party titles going again so they're really back on track.

Yeah definitely a smart move. Almost unbelievable that they decided to go with this decision due to what they have traditionally done in the past

It's most likely black to save cost on the series S by using the air vent from the series X

That price is quite crazy honestly, not a fan of the black grill though bit of a weird choice.
