Original story below: If you’ve been holding out for a next-gen console on the cheap then now’s your chance. Typically the Series S would set you back £249.99 but right now that very same console can be yours for just £189. For a bit of next-gen gaming that costs less than a Nintendo Switch Lite, it’s easily the Black Friday bargain to beat right now. For those who want to check out the other gaming deals that are running right now then you can check out our round-up of the best Black Friday deals. There are plenty more offers to be found there, with tons being added by the hour. The Xbox Series S is the smallest and slimmest gaming console on the market, developed by Microsoft as a more affordable version of the Xbox Series X. While it can’t offer the same performance as its older brother, it is still a fantastic option for anyone who wants to play Microsoft’s exclusive games or splash out on Xbox Game Pass, giving you access to hundreds of titles. We gave the Xbox Series S a 4.5-star review, noting how huge of an upgrade this console is when compared to the Xbox One S. We also loved how the next-gen NVME SSD helped to drastically reduce load times as it made jumping in and out of games a breeze.
Thanks to the upcoming Black Friday sale the Xbox Series S is now £60 cheaper, making this the perfect time to treat yourself over the winter holidays. This small console won’t be for everyone, and won’t be the best fit if you’re using a 4K monitor with a variable refresh rate. However, if next-gen graphics are not a priority, you are unlikely to notice too much of a difference.
