A few months after the launch of Xbox Series X, the new generation console from Microsoft, we already know a good handful of technical and aesthetic details of its hardware, as well as operating specifications, features and games that will be available in its catalog. However, There is still a fact that we do not know: its price.
Jason Ronald, one of the main responsible for the development of Xbox Series X, has given an interview to Eurogamer in which he has given a little clarifying but forceful response in relation to the price of the game console. Among other things. Ronald has settled with a sentence the question that we all ask ourselves right now: How much will Xbox Series X cost?
"We will be flexible with the price"
"I think Phil (Spencer) has been pretty transparent. We designed the system with a recommended price in mind. We trust the system we have designed but, at the same time, we are going to be flexible on the price.", s aid the person in charge of Xbox using words very similar to those that Phil Spencer, head of Xbox, used in recent statements.
Specifically Spencer said that "We are going to be sure that we remain flexible with our pricing and that we are on a good plan going towards launch.", and that they were counting on the help of Microsoft, the parent company, to mark an adequate amount: "Satya Nadella, the CEO, my boss, and Amy Hood, the CFO, are very involved with our plans," said the Xbox boss in a recent interview.
Right now price ranges for Xbox Series X and PS5 fluctuate between 450 and 499, according to analysts. Our readers have opted for a price closer to the second option for both the Microsoft and Sony consoles. Within this game of numbers we are still missing some other actor: Xbox seems to have a console tucked up its sleeve next-gen less powerful and cheaper than Series X, an alleged S Series that would come to function as a gateway to the next generation and which, perhaps, is the one that would mark the much vaunted flexibility of the company's pricing plan.
