Playing the best Xbox games is more affordable than ever, thanks to Amazon's October Prime DayWalmart's October Deals, and other retailers tripping over themselves to show the lowest prices. Right now, you can make the ultimate Xbox gaming setup for a fraction of what you'd pay any other time of the year.

You can save a bundle on an Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S, snag the best gaming TV for its best price ever, expand the storage of your console for a song, and pick up one of the best Xbox controllers for 60% off. If you get the best item in each category, you'll save over $275.
