Xbox is adding a new Series S model to its lineup with upgraded storage. Before, fans had to settle with 512GB but starting September 1, fans can purchase a new model with 1TB of storage.
This upgraded Series S model will set fans back $349, $50 more than the current model. Of course, this is still more affordable than the $500 Series X. For comparison, this $349 price point is just shy of the $400 PlayStation 5 digital edition.
There’s also fewer color options for the high storage Xbox Series S. Only the carbon black model was announced during launch.
While this will be welcome news to fans who have not yet purchased a Series S, fans who have invested in the hardware will need to find alternative solutions for their storage needs.
