The Xbox Series X has still been somewhat difficult to find over recent months. A year on from launch and the Xbox Series X stock situation has improved greatly, but consoles are still not readily available in stores at a moment’s notice.

To get you in the best position possible, we’re here to ensure you’re kept up to date with where to buy the Xbox Series X.
Latest: Although things have been getting better, we’re currently in a dry spell in terms of Xbox Series X stock. In the US, consoles were briefly available, including a restock of the limited edition Xbox Series X at the Microsoft Store. Similarly, the UK had a restock of the Halo Infinite console. We’re now awaiting any news of future restocks for the standard Xbox Series X console.
If you’re getting particularly desperate to buy Xbox Series X, it can be tempting to head to a reseller site. You will be able to get your hands on a console at some point, and even though restocks are selling fast it is still possible to scoop up the new console.

Can you buy Xbox Series X in store?
In the US, in-store stock varies by region, but we are seeing some success with Target. Be sure to check in-store stock levels early in the morning and head down straight away if you spot consoles available. Stores are allocating what little stock they have on a first come first served basis, but it is possible to buy the new Xbox Series X in person.
If you’re in the UK, things are a little different. Obviously the current lockdown has scuppered many plans to buy Xbox Series X in store so you’re at the mercy of online retailers for now.
