Microsoft has once again raised the prices of its Xbox consoles in the US, just five months after a previous increase. This latest adjustment, effective from October 3, reflects the company’s response to the “changes in the macroeconomic environment.” The price hikes affect both the Xbox Series X and S models, with significant increases that could impact gamers’ purchasing decisions. The Xbox Series S 512GB and 1TB models will see price increases of $20 on top of the previous $80 hikes, while the flagship Xbox Series X will rise by an additional $50.
