While most of the Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals were PlayStation-focused, Xbox deals worth looking at are starting to crop up. We’ve rounded up our picks for the best Black Friday/Cyber Monday Xbox deals already, but one of our favorites that is already live is the Xbox Series S for $248. As the cheapest console between Xbox and PlayStation, this is the perfect entry-level device to enter the Xbox ecosystem and experience 2024’s most popular games.
Score an Xbox Series S for $248
In the box, you’ll get the Xbox Series S, one Xbox Wireless Controller – though if you want to pick up a couple extras, Lenovo has a really good deal on Xbox controllers – and all necessary cables. Both the controller and console come in Roboto White, giving a clean look to any setup. The Xbox Series S only includes 512GB of storage, with just 364GB available for games. The rest of the storage is taken up by the OS and for features like Quick Resume. If you’re looking for more space, we’d suggest grabbing an SSD – this 1TB WD Black storage card is at its lowest price of the year.
Xbox has multiple major games on the horizon, making now a perfect time to hop in and score an Xbox Series S at a discount. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is due out next week, and Obsidian Entertainment’s Avowed is set to launch in February. At $248, this isn’t a ground-breaking low price, but it’s enough of a discount to justify picking up the Xbox Series S if you don’t own an Xbox or PC.
