Xbox fans spotted the increases at French retail giant Micromania this morning (thanks, ResetEra), and noted that each model was now €50 more expensive.


The suggestion here is that Micromania has pushed an imminent price rise live early, before Xbox announces the changes itself. Eurogamer understands that wider price rises are on the table, and has contacted Microsoft for comment.

In Europe, or at least at Micromania, the Xbox Series X has increased in price from €549.99 to €599.99. The original 512GB Xbox Series S has meanwhile increased from €299.99 to €349.99, while the newer 1TB Xbox Series S has gone up from €349.99 to €399.99.
 
Yeah, price increases of the Xbox Series X|S consoles is one sure way to improve sales of a platform that is already struggling sales wise with reduce sales year-on-year.

Good luck, Microsoft!

Everyone used to own a 360 at the beginning with only some owning a ps3. This changed at the end.

looks like phil did get my emails about how the series x is too cheap considering it's power, value, gamepass and being the most powerful console in the world so they need to increase the price :messenger_bicep:
he also cashed the checks i sent as a tip for making the best console ever

Let's wait and see if this isn't just one retailer.

But if it is region wide, might aswell i suppose not like they sell much there anyway.
 
No wonder they don't want to sell a ton of consoles. It is probably challenging to keep the manufacturing costs down, and the less units you sell, the more expensive each unit is to manufacture.
 
I just traded my Series X 2 weeks back for some cash to put towards something I would actually use.

I mean it kept fucking up the playback on some the 4k blu-rays so it was worthless to me, especially with no exclusives worth playing. Indiana Jones being on my PS5 Pro was the final straw.

Just a pointless console, this is the second generation that Xbox have let me down, I have only ever traded in two consoles the Xbox one and now the series X. Don't think il make this mistake a 3rd time.

Nice player, I've had that for the last few years.
 
Should increase the value of selling on the second hand market...

Should really sell my series x and ps5 as they just gather dust

Yep my recommendation is keep the Series X. It's getting harder and harder to get the bluray model. MS is pushing towards digital like crazy, wanting people to choose between Series S and digital-only X.
 
It's a win win situation. Microsoft gets to sell their console that no one wants for even more money. And gamers.....

Congrats it's a good player.
 
It's not the price that goes up. It's our currency that is losing value. It's inevitable things will get even more 'expensive'. Suck it up guys. We're in the endgame
