Xbox Series S gets mighty price cut, but you'll have to be fast

The games industry, it’s a mess. You don’t have to look far to see cuts left, right, and centre as publishers cull staff despite profits. Yet, while we don’t support such business brutality, we also can’t deny informing gamers of an absolute bargain.

Maybe this price cut is reflective in some way of how the world is viewing Microsoft amidst the layoffs and cancellations? Whatever the reason, the Xbox Series S is currently experiencing a hefty price cut, thus making it a lot friendlier on the ole bank account.

At Dell, gamers can purchase the Xbox S for $229.99, reducing its price by $70 down from $299.99 – we did the maths so you don’t have to. For all those mathematicians out there, that’s a 23 percent discount.

Are you ready to become a Pal Tamer in Palworld?

Also worth noting right now, is how massive Palworld has become. This Xbox and Steam title has amassed millions of players in a matter of days, and while not everyone is sold on its “originality”, that’s not stopping people from testing their mettle in this monsterific survival experience.

Sure, you can play the game via Steam, but for those of us who prefer to game using a console, this is your sign to play the game everyone’s talking about on a nicely discounted Xbox Series S. Despite not being as mighty as the bigger Xbox X, the S still holds its own. You might not be able to download as many games as on its sister console, but you’ll still be able to do a fair amount of gaming thanks to its 10GB RAM.

That should give you ample enough room to experience the fights of Hogwarts Legacy’s “terrifying” DLC once it arrives on Xbox. And if you don’t fancy facing spectral unknowns, the base game is filled with all sorts of magical marvels!

Act fast to bag yourself a bargain, or forever be forced to remember your shame.
