The Xbox Series X price has been cut to a record low in the United States.
At the time of publishing, Microsoft’s console can be purchased with or without Diablo 4 for $349 at Walmart.
Xbox Series X has an ERP of $499.99, although it’s price fell to as low as $400 in Black Friday promotions this month.
The deals below are available to all customers, meaning a Walmart+ subscription isn’t required.
The decision to discount the console so heavily may fuel speculation that Microsoft is preparing to announce updated Xbox Series X hardware.
The company recently began teasing plans for some “important announcements” at The Game Awards on December 7.
Microsoft previously used 2019’s The Game Awards to unveil the Xbox Series X console and Ninja Theory’s Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2.
Legal documents published inadvertently in September potentially laid bare key elements of the company’s gaming strategy for years to come, including plans to launch a redesigned Xbox Series X console, codenamed ‘Brooklin’.
According to the documents, the console was planned to launch in November 2024 priced at $499. It would ditch the standard Series X’s disc tray but come with 2TB of storage.
It would also come with “a more immersive controller” featuring new haptic feedback and accelerometer features, modular thumbsticks and a rechargeable and swappable battery.
The same leaked documents also mentioned an Xbox Series S refresh, featuring improved Wi-Fi support and 1TB of storage, launching in September 2024.
