The best Xbox Series X deals could get interesting in 2024. We saw deals and bundles go beyond our expectations at the tail end of 2023, with some lasting well after the Holiday season. With rumors of a console refresh coming later this year, could Microsoft be trying to get more hardware sold before the new stock arises? Or could these discounts be incentives for folks to go against the front-running PS5?

It would seem more and more Xbox games will be released without exclusivity to Microsoft's consoles, but that doesn't mean the Series X and S aren't worth buying. They're cheaper than the PS5 and offer you a simple portal into the Game Pass catalog if you don't own a PC. Plus, if upcoming first-party games end up being timed exclusives, you'll still get them first.

If you're in the US, rest assured, there are ways to save on your new console, through Xbox Series X deals on accessories, games, and services. Not only that, but All Access offerings can save you outright on your console, and Microsoft has started selling discounted renewed devices as well. That means there are plenty of offers out there for the discerning deal-hunter to enjoy. 

There are ways to save on your overall Xbox Series X experience - be it through deals on Xbox Series X accessories or Xbox Game Pass sales. You'll find all our top tips for making the most of these offers just below, as well as all the retailers you should be checking for stock.

Save $101 - It would seem the Diablo IV bundle for the Xbox Series X is getting more generous prices now that the game has been added to the Game Pass library. We'll let you decide if this is still good value versus a Game Pass subscription, but if you want to play the game without signing on to another monthly fee, this could work out well.

Xbox Series X + Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 bundle | <a href="https://www.awin1.com/awclick.php?awinmid=22479&awinaffid=103504&clickref=hawk-custom-tracking&p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.currys.co.uk%2Fproducts%2Fmicrosoft-xbox-series-x-and-call-of-duty-modern-warfare-iii-bundle-10258118.html" data-link-merchant="currys.co.uk"" target="_blank">£539 at Currys
This Xbox Series X bundle gets you a lumped-in copy of the latest Call of Duty game with your purchase. Considering the game is full price (£70), this bundle doesn't really save you anything besides the hassle of buying the two separately, but keep an eye out for potential discounts soon.

This Xbox Series X deal gets you the standard 1TB console with a copy of the latest Fifa game (now called EA Sports FC). The 2023 installment of the game is still relatively new, so you're getting a decent deal here that saves you a bit of money if you were to buy the two separately.

Save $8.99 - The WD Black C50 is the best storage expansion for Xbox Series X and S in our opinion. If you want to Quick Resume games from additional storage, the C50 is your best bet at 1TB, especially with this discount. In this deal at Amazon, you also get 1 month of Game Pass lumped into your purchase.

What is the Xbox Series X price?

The official Xbox Series X price is $499 in the US and £449 in the UK. If you see a price higher than that without any extras, you are being overcharged and should avoid. Typically the inflated prices aren't subtle either, we're talking hundreds rather than tens extra. 

Some stores may take advantage in other ways by limited sellable stock to bundles, with extra games or headset. We've seen some with really naff hats and T-shirts too. Some stores might bump up the prices of these items, but one thing's for sure, you won't be saving a penny on the bundled items at this time.

Xbox Series X deals on accessories

The Xbox Series X price might make you wince, but the console's got one major advantage you may not have considered - backward compatibility for accessories and games.

After paying for a console, you'd normally have to factor in costs for games along with new controllers, subscriptions, and whatever extras the publishers are pushing. But with any Xbox Series X bundles, all of your existing Xbox One accessories and services are forwards compatible. That means your achievements, progression, controllers, memberships, and Xbox One headsets move forward to Series X. Many of the top audio-brands have contributed to our guide to the best Xbox Series X headsets as a result.

The console also lets you play older Xbox One games via both the optical disc drive and digital download, not to mention Game Pass. That allows you to save a couple of hundred dollars right off the bat - you don't need to buy specific 'next-gen' versions of a game, as they're usually the same.

We've gathered the best Xbox Series X deals on games and accessories below. Check them out if you want a discount!

How to save on the Xbox Series X price

Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S consoles

The Xbox Series X price is still a hefty chunk of cash to spend. But you don't necessarily have to pay it off in one go. Enter Microsoft's fancy Xbox All Access system. This is a payment plan, and it allows you to get an Xbox Series X for a monthly fee spread over two years. It'll set you back $34.99 per month in the US, £28.99p/m in the UK, and $46p/m in Australia. 

Interestingly, Xbox All Access doesn't just get you the console. It also offers 24 months of Game Pass Ultimate as well. Because Game Pass is a bit like Netflix for gaming (with well over 100 games and counting), that's a solid deal. Particularly due to the fact that new Xbox exclusive games like Halo will appear on Game Pass for free on the day of release. 

Thanks to this, Xbox All Access might be one of the more sensible options when it comes to buying an Xbox Series X. Indeed, it saves you money in the long run. Sure, you're only getting a small amount knocked off the overall price, but it's still cheaper than buying the console and two years of Game Pass separately.

However, be advised that you won't find Xbox All Access in many stores besides Microsoft. GameStop and Walmart fill that role in the US, and Game or Smyths have the honor in the UK.

Ever since playing Journey at the age of 15, I’ve been desperate to cover video games for a living. After graduating from Edinburgh Napier University with a degree in Journalism, I contributed to the Scottish Games Network and completed an Editorial Internship over at Expert Reviews. Besides that, I’ve been managing my own YouTube channel and Podcast for the last 7 years. It’s been a long road, but all that experience somehow landed me a dream job covering gaming hardware. I’m a self-confessing PlayStation fanboy, but my experience covering the larger business and developer side of the whole industry has given me a strong knowledge of all platforms. When I’m not testing out every peripheral I can get my hands on, I’m probably either playing tennis or dissecting game design for an upcoming video essay. Now, I better stop myself here before I get talking about my favourite games like HUNT: Showdown, Dishonored, and Towerfall Ascension.
