Last month, Microsoft slashed the price of all the Xbox One and Xbox One S systems by $50 to compete with Sony’s PlayStation. It brought down the console’s starting price to $250. But it was a limited period offer that ended on February 25th. If you still want good deals on the Xbox One S, Amazon is offering the 500GB version of the console bundled with Battlefield 1 for just $255.
1TB Xbox One S Battlefield 1 bundle selling for $292
That’s a handsome discount from the console’s standard price of $300. The bundle includes a white Xbox One S 500GB console with a digital copy of the Battlefield 1 Standard Edition. Buyers also get a 14-day Xbox Live Gold membership trial and a full one-month subscription to EA Access. The bundle is eligible for free shipping. You can stream 4K content and watch 4K Blu-ray movies on Amazon Video and Netflix.
Amazon is also offering a 3-year protection plan for $25.22 and a 4-year protection for $46.10. The online retailer has also slashed the price of 1TB Xbox One S Battlefield 1 bundle from $350 to $292. It includes a military green console, a digital version of Battlefield 1 Early Enlister Deluxe Edition, the Xbox Live Gold and EA Access memberships along with many in-game bonuses.
Ghost Recon bundle available at $299
The online retailer has also launched an exclusive Xbox One S bundle with Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands gold edition. It is priced at $299. You’ll also get $10 Amazon Music Unlimited credit and another $10 towards Amazon Video. It’s worth pointing out that the digital components of the bundle are delivered to buyers in separate emails three days after receiving the console.
In related Xbox news, Respawn Entertainment’s futuristic shooter game Titanfall 2 is currently available at a huge discount on Amazon. The physical version of the game is listed for $31.70, which is a 47% discount to its normal price of $60. The digital version of the game is selling at $24, which is pretty exciting! Titanfall 2 was released only about six months ago.
Project Scorpio just a few months away
The Xbox One sales haven’t been great. Discounts may help Microsoft boost sales numbers. Sony’s PlayStation 4 has been outselling Xbox One 2-to-1 since the two consoles launched more than two years ago. The PS4 has also been attracting more exclusive titles than the Xbox One.
Microsoft is all set to unveil Project Scorpio, the world’s most powerful gaming console ever, later this year. The Redmond-based company could hold a special event before E3 to announce its new console. Project Scorpio would feature six teraflops of GPU, virtual reality support, and true 4K gaming. Xbox chief Phil Spencer said a few days ago that Scorpio would be a premium console with a premium price tag.
