Launched in 2020 in conjunction with the Xbox Series S digital-only console, the Series X is the disc version of Microsoft's premier gaming platform.
Sales estimates are almost identical across both platforms.
The Xbox Series X is now 799.99 in Europe, a 33% increase.
The second Xbox price increase in less than a year is upon us.
The Halo remake plays ever so slightly better on PS5, but people still seem to want to play it on Xbox more.
Consoles have never been more expensive, yet Xbox continues to lose money every time you buy one.
Xbox explains what happened to its network on Monday. PlayStation still has nothing to say.
If you can't get into your Xbox account right now, you're not alone.
Thirst quenched, Spartan.
Somehow, Xbox just had its best month of the year.
Microsoft said, "its not the experience we want anyone to have when their account is compromised."
The PS5 version has been in the top 20 since pre-orders went live.
Apparently, Xbox consoles are selling so well that supply is struggling to meet demand. Full store shelves suggest otherwise.
The PS5 barely outsold Xbox in the UK last month thanks to price hikes and Forza hype.
Xbox is seemingly setting itself up for the future in a massive way.
In second place is Backwards Compatibility, which isn't surprising.
Almost six years after the PS5 launched, almost two million people are still playing GTA on PS4.
Under Asha Sharma's leadership, Xbox has made it a point to solicit fan feedback.
The titles had already been delisted, but for a brief moment they were back online.
If you don't see a "Just for you" tag, then sadly you're not able to get one at discount.
