GameStop: Limited Xbox Series X and S console bundles on launch day
Looking to get an Xbox Series X or S on launch day? You might want to check your local GameStop!
The Xbox Series X launches in just a few hours (on November 10) and you couldn’t snag a pre-order. What’s a gamer desperate for next-gen gaming to do?
The good news is most major retailers will have some limited number of Xbox Series X|S consoles available in stock on launch day. The bad news is you’ll have to order it online. With coronavirus still a thing, retailers are hoping to avoid mass crowds, so they are sticking to online orders only (or curbside pickup if you have already pre-ordered).
GameStop is one of the only retailers who will be selling Xbox Series X and S consoles in-store on launch day. The video game retailer confirmed they’ll have “a very limited number” of Xbox Series X and S console bundles available for purchase online this evening and in stores during the launch on November 10.
GameStop didn’t specify what these bundles will include or how much they will cost, but the website does have a few Xbox Series bundles listed already. Here are the bundles, their prices and their contents (as well as each value).

These aren’t the confirmed bundles, but I did find them listed on the GameStop website. It’s possible additional Xbox Series X bundles will be made available throughout the holiday months, but it sounds like this is a hot commodity item and this may be your only chance to get one before 2021.
As a reminder, there are two next-gen Xbox consoles arriving on November 10. The Xbox Series X, which is considered the most powerful gaming console ever, costs $499.99, while the less powerful but more budget-friendly Xbox Series S costs $299.99.
