Xbox Series X restocks this week: all the retailers to check for new drops

Thursday is usually a great time to look in search of the Xbox Series X restock, and with Microsoft and GameStop already making tentative steps toward offering new releases this week, things appear to be on the upswing. Although there haven’t been any rumors regarding Xbox Series X restocks at Walmart, Amazon, or Best Buy this week there’s enough activity to remain optimistic.

This means it’s difficult to determine which place to begin your search to find the Xbox Series X restock this week. We’ve been following these consoles since the launch day (and some time earlier, as well, if counting pre-orders) and have gotten into the rhythm of every seller’s Xbox Series X stock flow at this point.

The stores you need to be monitoring for new consoles right below. Be sure to beware of price increases that exceed $499 listed in the marketplace listings. And you’ll have to trigger the switch fairly quickly in order to purchase the latest Xbox Series X restocks you are able to find.

GameStop(opens in a new tab) has been running numerous on-line Xbox Series X restock events over the past few weeks, but the offerings have been limited to rather expensive bundles. However, the retailer did take note of this last week, offering the slightly less expensive $650 bundle offer that is vastly better than the prior $700 figures.

We’d strongly recommend staying to this page if you’re looking for more Xbox Series X accessories such as Game Pass and controllers. Although they’re pricier than the regular console in price, these bundles have been able to stay on the shelves much longer than the regular console.

Tips: Keep an eye in the coming days to learn more about bundle options, and join to receive PowerUp Rewards.

Microsoft(opens in a new window) has also been emailing those mysterious messages this week. Anyone who have accounts with a Microsoft account have received invitations to purchase through an Xbox Series X bundle builder available on the official website. But, the invitations appear to be random and do not provide a guarantee of a console. Be sure to check your email to ensure that you don’t miss the next wave.

Tips: Check your inbox frequently for new invitational waves

Similar to that to The Best Buy(opens in a new tab)’s two-week schedule has been set up after the retailer had been offering inventory on the 11th of January. In contrast the case with Walmart, Best Buy doesn’t offer much notice in advance, so it’s a matter of keeping that tracker open and staying in contact over the the coming days.

Amazon(opens in a new page) has always seemed somewhat random with the way it handles its Xbox Series X restock opportunities and hasn’t had any kind of drop until 2022 so far. We’re nearing at the close of January however, and we usually get the appearance of one or two waves on this site during each month. We’d suggest keeping an eye on the market; prices are usually volatile here, often hiding in the ‘See All Buy Options Section. Be aware of price hikes – you shouldn’t be paying more than 499 dollars for this console it’s own.

In order to provide you with the best chance of landing a brand new console, should Xbox Series X restocks kick in the coming week, we’ve put together the information we’ve learned about the stock wave with the most power possible , and just below.

1. Log in before the time and save your payment details
We’d suggest creating your accounts at the retail stores listed above and also ensuring you stay registered throughout the course of your research. This is due to the fact that the moment Xbox Series X restocks do arrive, they’re very fast. It’s important to have all the time you save in order to ensure you are able to check out.

It’s not over when you’ve reached the checkout but. We recommend saving your payment and shipping details before the deadline. Consoles could be removed from your cart if delay the last step. So getting it done with as little effort as possible is the aim to play here.

2. Keep fresh
When you see an active Xbox Series X restock, you’ll try to add to your cart. It’s highly unlikely you’ll be able to complete the transaction on your first try. Sites frequently fail to function properly due to all the attention, making checkouts slow and complicated. Make sure you have multiple tabs open and turning to push your way through.

3. Don’t give up
It’s important to remember that we observe Xbox Series X restocks pretty frequently every week. If you’re unsuccessful in one, then it’s not a reason to give up and go to sites for resellers. These marketplaces can charge users far, farmore than the cost of the console and will probably just taken the console from your wallet at the point of purchase.
