Microsoft has announced that it will increase the price of the Xbox Series in the United States yet again. This notably follows the global price increase the consoles received earlier this year. The company says the new price increase is due to “changes in the macroeconomic environment.” The price changes vary with each console. Coupled with price increase earlier this year, the Xbox Series consoles have now gone up $200 from their initial MSRP.
| Products | Old Price | New Price | Increase |
|---|---|---|---|
| Xbox Series S 512GB | $379.99 | $399.99 | $20 |
| Xbox Series S 1TB | $429.99 | $449.99 | $20 |
| Xbox Series X Digital | $549.99 | $599.99 | $50 |
| Xbox Series X | $599.99 | $649.99 | $50 |
