Microsoft have price matched the best deals that UK retailers have given for the Xbox Series S and Xbox Series Controllers this Black Friday, extending the same £60 price cut on the console and £20 discount on gamepads as seen at Amazon, Smyths Toys and others.
This means that the MSRP for the Xbox Series S will now be £189.99 through the weekend, and the Xbox Series Controller will be £34.99. Here’s the direct links to the Microsoft Store:
- Get the Xbox Series S for £189.99 direct from Microsoft
- Get Xbox Series Controllers for £34.99 direct from Microsoft
The Xbox Series Controller is available at this price in White, Black, Blue, Red and Lime Green.
It’s not clear if there will be a refund of the difference for those that purchased directly from Microsoft over the past few days, but we hope they do so.
What is known is that you are able to get a little more juice out of this offer by purchasing cut price Microsoft Store gift cards to use on these hardware purchases.
These offers are also still live at the various UK retailers, including Smyths Toys, Very and Currys. Others might be able to price match from their current £199 positions, though they do often offer bundles.
