Video game enthusiasts have traditionally observed a decrease in console prices over time. However, this trend won’t hold true for the current generation of gaming systems. Instead, we can expect an uptick in prices across many products. For instance, Microsoft has announced that the Xbox Series X console, initially priced at $499, will rise to $599 during this holiday season. The Xbox Series S, originally $299, will go up to $379. Similarly, first-party games are set to increase from their usual price of $69.99 to $79.99. Other items like controllers, headsets, and more won’t be immune to these price hikes either.
In simpler terms, “Xbox acknowledged that these alterations might be difficult due to careful thought put into them considering market trends and the escalating cost of production. Moving forward, our main goal remains providing multiple options to enjoy more games on any device, while also ensuring a worthwhile experience for Xbox users.
Starting today, there will reportedly be price hikes for consoles and controllers. Changes to game software prices won’t occur until the holiday season. The exact timing is unknown, but it could affect games scheduled for release in autumn and winter. Prices of Xbox products globally are set to rise, though only US and Canadian consumers will notice a change in headset costs. No particular reason has been given for this decision.
