Xbox Series X Black Friday deals are going to be a hot commodity. Microsoft’s next generation console was released into the wild earlier this month, and those of us who weren’t lucky enough to get a pre-order have been finding it really quite difficult to get hold of one now it’s out – stock is extremely limited and sells fast. With that in mind, we’ve rounded up quick links to your best bets and have pasted them below. That should give you something of a head start, or point you in the right direction at the very least. For more, don’t forget to check in with the best Xbox Series X deals.
Although Black Friday doesn’t officially kick off until November 27, a few early offers have started to appear. While it’s unlikely that the console itself will receive any discount, there’s a good chance that new stock will appear as part of price-saving bundles. Oh, and you should expect to see some good Xbox Series X Black Friday deals on accessories and games in the days ahead too.

Black Friday Xbox Series X deals – consoles
Now that the Xbox Series X is here, we’re hoping to see more offers popping up as we approach Black Friday. Because you’ll need to be fast to secure a console, we’ve listed all the retailers most likely to get stock in again below.
Good luck!
US deals
Xbox Series X | $499.99 at Amazon
As the biggest kid on the retailer block, Amazon is likely to get more stock in for Xbox Series X. But there’s a downside. Because it’s the go-to destination for most shoppers, competition will be fierce. That means you’ll need to be quick, so keep refreshing the page every now and then and be ready to pounce if more consoles become available.
We’d also recommend having a few alternatives up your sleeve. As it happens, we’ve got a couple below…
Xbox Series X | $499.99 at Microsoft
If in doubt, go straight to the source. In a turn of events that will surprise precisely no-one, Microsoft has been one of the most consistent when it comes to Xbox Series X stock. It’s also likely to get more in before everyone else, so keep an eye out.
Plus, we’ve spotted a few bundles via their official store. If you want an extra controller to go with your console, this is a good way to get it.
Xbox Series X | $499.99 at Best Buy
As one of the biggest retailers in the country, Best Buy is a good bet for stock when it comes to the Xbox Series X. It’s a shopping mainstay, and that means it’s sure to get lots of the console in.
What’s more, it has the option of in-store pickups as well. That makes it a real contender, and one to consider if you don’t think you’ll be home for delivery of your next-gen console.
Xbox Series X | $499.99 at B&H Photo
While it’s an unusual choice of retailer for Xbox Series X deals, that may actually work in your favor. You see, other shoppers might not think to look there, giving you an advantage when it comes to securing your own console.
That said, we don’t expect B&H Photo to have much stock. That means you’ll need to move fast to ensure you don’t miss out.
Xbox Series X | $499.99 at Newegg
As one of the biggest retailers in the country, Best Buy is a good bet for stock when it comes to the Xbox Series X. It’s a shopping mainstay, and that means it’s sure to get lots of the console in.
What’s more, it has the option of in-store pickups as well. That makes it a real contender, and one to consider if you don’t think you’ll be home for delivery of your next-gen console.
UK deals
Xbox Series X | £449.99 at Amazon
Amazon is always a solid bet when it comes to console deals, and we don’t expect it to disappoint with the Xbox Series X. Well, when it gets more stock, that is. The retail giant has been struggling to get more Xbox Series X in, so it’s worth checking back every now and then to see if any offers are available.
As ever, you’ll need to be very quick to secure them – we suspect more than a few people will be camping on the listing page to see if pre-orders come back into stock.
Xbox Series X | £449.99 Microsoft
For the best chance of an Xbox Series X pre-order, we’d suggest Microsoft. It was the most reliable source of deals when pre-orders started, and stock lasted the longest there as well.
With that in mind, we expect its online store to get more stock in ahead of the November 10 release date. After all, this is the company behind the machine. If anyone is going to get more consoles ahead of launch, surely it’ll be Microsoft.
Xbox Series X | £449.99 Currys PC World
Currys is a good choice when it comes to Xbox Series X pre-orders. Thanks to its size and presence on the UK high street, it’s likely to get more stock in before the November 10 launch date.
That’s in spite of the pandemic, too. It consistently offered deals throughout the Covid-19 lockdown on rare items like the Nintendo Switch, a console few other retailers seemed able to secure.
Xbox Series X | £449 at John Lewis
John Lewis may not be the first retailer you think of when it comes to Xbox Series X, but it’s definitely one to keep in mind. It offers a two year warranty as standard on electronics, whereas most retailers only provide one. That makes it a real winner in our books, especially because new consoles can be so unpredictable.
A word of caution, though. Surprisingly, the store wasn’t well stocked with PS5s when pre-orders for that console started, so it might be missing some Xbox Series X deals too.
Xbox Series X | £449.99 at Argos
As another mainstay of the UK high street, Argos is going to be a retailer that’s probably going to get more Xbox Series X stock on launch day and beyond.
However, as with every other retailer here, expect there to be fierce competition for new consoles hitting shelves. You’ll need to be very quick to get your hands on any stock that comes in.
Black Friday Xbox Series X deals – games
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla | $60 $49.94 at Amazon US
Loot and pillage through history in this Viking adventure, and for $10 less than normal (yeah, that’s not a sentence we ever thought we’d write either). Because Valhalla only just came out, getting any money off it at all is a bargain.
Madden NFL 21 | $60 $27.99 at Walmart
Listen up, football fans – you can get more than 50% off the latest Madden with this offer at Walmart. That’s an enormous saving, but we’re not sure how long it’ll last. Be sure to snap it up before it’s gone.
Cyberpunk 2077 | $60 $49.94 at Amazon US
OK, so the free Xbox Series X upgrade isn’t due to arrive until next year. But come on, that price is too hot to ignore. $10 off the MSRP before the game’s even out? Yes please – don’t mind if we do. Just be quick. With Cyberpunk launching this December, it’ll surely go back up to full price before long.
Watch Dogs Legion | $60 $29.99 at Amazon US
Go to a dystopian future London and set things right with the latest Watch Dogs – and do so for half-price, too. That 50% price cut is a big deal on such a new release, especially because the game only launched a few weeks ago.
Marvel’s Avengers | $60 $26.99 at Amazon US
Avengers, Assemble… for a whole lot less than normal. In fact, this one gets you more than 50% off the MSRP of the game. Because it offers a good Avengers story and lets you take control of icons like Iron Man or Thor, that’s not to be sniffed at.
