Why not treat yourself to a little gaming indulgence this Black Friday? Or perhaps you’re on the lookout for a fantastic early Christmas present for someone special. Walmart has an enticing deal that might just be perfect. With their Black Friday offers, you can snap up Microsoft’s flagship gaming console while enjoying a neat $50 savings off the usual price tag.
Typically, the Xbox Series X retails at $449, but right now, you can grab it for just $398 thanks to Walmart’s Black Friday sale. This console isn’t just for show; it’s built for serious gaming. It comes equipped with a custom Zen 2 CPU boasting 8 cores operating at 3.8GHz, and a custom AMD RDNA 2 GPU that delivers stunning 4K visuals at a smooth 120FPS—perfect for those variable refresh rate TVs or monitors. With a solid 1TB of storage, it’s ready to load your favorite games in a flash.
This series of the Xbox Series X is available in a sleek “Robot-White” finish. It’s the digital version, which means it doesn’t include a disk drive, but it’s packed with features like Dolby Atmos, HDMI 2.1, and USB 3.1 connectivity, ensuring a premium gaming experience right in your living room. Sure, the Series X has been around for a bit, but it remains a powerhouse in gaming and is actually more affordable than many mid-range PC graphics cards.
One of the standout features is the Xbox’s backward compatibility. It supports a wide range of games and accessories from previous Xbox generations. Plus, with a Game Pass subscription, you unlock a massive library of games, including day-one access to the latest AAA titles. Personally, I find my Game Pass Ultimate subscription invaluable, as it lets me enjoy gaming on both my PC and the Series X. Some games even sync progression and saves between platforms, which is a game-changer. It’s especially nice when you feel like swapping the desk for the comfort of the couch and enjoying a gaming session on a larger screen.
