Microsoft announced its Xbox Series X last year, and the spotlight has been on Sony ever since, with the imminent reveal of its PS5 set for the next few days, or - more likely - next month now.
In a bid to get a piece of the limelight, specs for the Xbox Series X were dropped this week causing quite the buzz, and now the price on Microsoft's most pricey and powerful console has been slashed in an aggressive sale that will save you big bucks on the standalone console and bundles.
- Grab an Xbox One X with 3 months of Xbox Game Pass + Xbox Live Gold for £259 at Currys
- Buy an Xbox One X bundle at Microsoft Store UK for £299
- Buy an Xbox One X bundle at Microsoft Store US for $299
Both UK and US retailers are getting on the action, with the official Microsoft Store leading the charge with Xbox One X bundles coming in at £299, a snip of their former £449.99 price tag. Over in the US store, a similar offer sees bundles drop from $499.99 to $299, saving you $200. Some retailers are even besting Microsoft, like Currys PC World's £259 Xbox One X bundle.

Even though you can also grab the standalone console for the same price, bundles usually offer the better deal, giving you either free games or access to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate - although a lot of the latter deals promotions of the service are exclusive to new sign-ups only, and not players who are already subscribing to the service.
It's certainly not a deal-breaker though - far from it. These prices are some of the lowest we've seen for the Xbox One X, and if you were ever considering treating yourself, now is most definitely the time.
