You can stop panicking about the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X

New console launches can cause some anxiety, especially in the time before you get the next-gen hardware yourself. And I get it. You’ve committed to spending a lot of money on that preorder for something you’ve never used before. And I think that would amplify anyone’s reaction to negative news. But I’m here to tell you that you can stop panicking about the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Sony and Microsoft have got this (although Amazon and Walmart might not).

Xbox Series X is launching for $500 on November 10 alongside the more affordable Xbox Series S for $300. PlayStation 5 is launching for $500 on November 12 alongside the more affordable $400 Digital Edition. The wait is almost over, but you can start letting go of your concerns right now.
