Here's what your new Xbox Series X will be packaged in.
What you need to know
- Packaging for the Xbox Series X retail box has appeared online.
- We have not seen packaging for the Xbox Series S yet.
- Both consoles are scheduled to release on November 10, 2020.
While Microsoft finally revealed pricing and release dates for its two upcoming next-generation consoles, the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, we didn't yet see retail packaging. That has changed thanks to a listing on Canadian retailer The Source, which shows us the box that the Xbox Series X will be packaged in.
The internal 1TB SSD is boldy displayed on the box, a useful thing to put forward considering the SSD in the Xbox Series S is identical but only 512GB. Both consoles support the expansion cards Microsoft has developed in partnership with Seagate.
The Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S are both set to release on November 10, 2020. Preorders are scheduled to open on September 22, 2020. The Xbox Series X will cost $499 while the Xbox Series S will cost $299. The release dates of several games have been bumped up to match the new consoles, including Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Yakuza: Like a Dragon.
Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Live Gold in one
Xbox Game Pass gives you access to over 200 games for one monthly fee. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate also adds Xbox Live Gold to the package so you can play online with your friends. Right now, you can purchase a three-month subscription for a great price.
