Xbox One and Xbox One S Discounts News: Microsoft Offers 'Halo Wars 2' Bundle
Gamers can now purchase cheaper Xbox One and Xbox One S consoles and bundle packages after retailers dropped the prices on a variety of their products.
According to Tech Radar, the time to avail the discounted merchandise is now, as deals upon deals of consoles and other packages are being offered at the cheapest price. For example, it will be best for those who are planning to buy standalone consoles to check out the new Xbox One S instead of going for the original one, which is less expensive. With all the discount coupons available, buying the newer version is said to be the smarter thing to do.
At the moment, Xbox One sells from $239 to $379.99 at selected stores. Although it may look cheaper, the deals that come with purchasing the Xbox One S make the latter a better buy. The new console's price ranges from $247.00 to $327, but it comes with a variety of upgrades. The design is a lot slimmer compared to the bulky original. The 4K visual support makes it possible for gamers to watch Blu-Ray and Netflix content on a higher resolution.
Meanwhile, one of the newest Xbox One S bundles being offered (via Amazon) is "Halo Wars 2" that sells for $299.99, $50 less than the original price of $349.99.
