Although it was released back in 2020, Microsoft has introduced new Xbox Series X models for gamers looking to upgrade or pick up a console for the first time in 2024.

Starting at $448 on Amazon and Walmart, the Xbox Series X: All Digital Edition has the same horsepower, 4K graphics and 120Hz refresh rate as the original Xbox Series X, but without the game drive and Blu-ray discs. This means you can download games directly to the console without a disk. It’s just like the Xbox Series S, but with improved graphics and sound.

The Xbox Series X: All Digital Edition also comes with a larger storage capacity of 1TB (to store about 15 games), instead of 512GB, and a matching robotic white Xbox Wireless Controller.

Additionally, Microsoft released the high-end Xbox Series X: Galaxy Black Special Edition. At the moment, it’s priced at $595.99 on eBay.

The Galaxy Black Special Edition features the same specs, drive, and design as the original Xbox Series X. The only differences with the new console are an increased storage capacity of 2TB (to store about 27 games), instead of 1TB, and futuristic colors in black and stars with a green base for the console and matching Xbox Wireless Controller. It’s more energy efficient than previous models as well.

Meanwhile, both new models have access to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for digital downloads, cloud gaming features, online multiplayer, access to hundreds of Xbox games – including day one releases and EA Play titles – and other perks.

Available now, Xbox Series X: All Digital Edition for $448 on Amazon and Walmart, while Xbox Series X: Galaxy Black Special Edition sells for $595.99 on eBay.
