Microsoft turns on the price screw – consoles, accessories and games become more expensive!
Microsoft has officially announced that new, higher prices for Xbox consoles, controllers and games come into force worldwide-and from May 1, 2025.
You can also feel this in the EU: the Xbox Series X now costs up to $ 599.99, while the new 2TB galaxy black edition even costs an outrageous $ 699.99. You also have to dig deeper into your pocket with the accessories-simple controllers start at $ 64.99, while elite models cost up to $ 199.99.
Even digital content and new first party games will in future reach prices of up to $ 79.99, which Microsoft justifies with increased production and delivery costs as well as the global economic situation. For you as a player, this means that if you want to get into the Xbox ecosystem or upgrade in the future, you have to expect noticeably higher expenses. The Xbox Game Pass remains untouched by these adjustments and remains the “Best Deal in Gaming”.
