Xbox Series X Retail Box Art Shows Plenty of Holes

As confirmed this week, the Xbox Series X will be available on November 10, 2020. We can already take a look at the retail packaging and the underside of the next-generation console today.

After an extensive leak, Microsoft was forced to officially confirm the most important dates for the launch of the Xbox Series X this week. In addition, a retailer from Canada published a snapshot of the retail packaging of the new console.

At the same time, we can take a first look at the underside of the new Xbox today. In Europe, the Xbox Series X, like the Xbox Series S, will be available from November 10, 2020. The option to pre-order the console will be available from September 22, 2020.

In the next generation of consoles, Microsoft says it is deliberately relying on two different models of the new Xbox in order to address the broadest possible target group. On the one hand, the Redmond-based company is releasing a classic next-generation console with the Xbox Series X, which is offered at a price of $499 dollars and is said to score above all with its performance and high-quality 4K graphics.

Number two in the league is the Xbox Series S, which will be available for $299.99 and will be aimed primarily at gamers on a tight budget. In contrast to its big brother, the Xbox Series S was tailored to display games in 1080p to 1440p resolution and comes with correspondingly weaker hardware.

In addition, an optical drive was not used for reasons of cost. Check the retail box art of the next-gen console of Microsoft below.
