Where to pre-order Xbox Series X in the UK: try these retailers first - TechRadar

Update: The latest news isn't good - stocks are mostly sold out around the web for Xbox Series X pre-orders in the UK. Very is the latest brand to bring something to the table, and is still showing hardware bundle options in stock at the moment and Argos is showing some availablity- we're constantly checking the web to see if we can spot any Xbox pre-order deals still available.

Xbox Series X pre-orders are going to sell out fast in the UK. That's if what we saw in Australia this morning is anything to go, where some retailers sold out almost instantly - not to mention what happened last week, during the other massive console launch of the year. 

So with demand extremely high, what's the best way to secure your Xbox Series X pre-order(or Xbox Series S pre-order, for that matter) now they're live? That's where we can help.

We're continually scanning the UK's retailers: we'll tell you who we think you should go to first to pre-order your new Xbox; and we'll record who's running out of stock, live, here on this page. That way you can increase your chance of beating the crowds and successfully pre-ordering your Xbox Series X console today.

  • Microsoft: pre-order for £249 / £449, although link is wrong (see below)
  • Very: pre-order for £249 / £449 (hardware bundle options are still live)
  • Argos: pre-order for £249 / £449 (currently has stock in parts of the country)
  • Amazon: pre-order for £249 / £449 (currently out of stock)
  • Currys: pre-order for £249 / £449 (queue system in place, Xbox Series X currently out of stock)
  • John Lewis: pre-order for £249 / £449 (page still not live)
  • AO: pre-order for £249 / £449 (page still not live)
  • GAME: pre-order now, also offers Xbox All Access (site has just crashed)
  • Smyths Toys: Pre-order page down, but Xbox All Access is live
  • Tesco: now out of stock of both consoles
  • Simply Games: Still 'register your interest' page
  • Shopto: Only a 'register your interest' page but Xbox Series X allocation is sold out

Inexplicably, Microsoft is showing the Xbox Series X pre-order for just £249.99 - that link goes through to the Xbox Series S pre-order, so don't be fooled by the super low price.

Xbox Series S pre-orders: retailers that appear to have stock

  • Amazon: pre-orders are still showing as live
  • Very: pre-orders are still showing as live
  • Microsoft: still showing configuration options

Xbox Series X pre-orders: UK retailers to try first

Xbox Series X (sold out) / Xbox Series S: £249 / £449 at Amazon
The Xbox Series X has already sold out on Amazon, however, the Xbox Series S is still available to pre-order - for now. Amazon usually has a good supply when it comes to new console launches, but as with the PS5, demand seems to be particularly high for Microsoft's flagship console, the Xbox Series X.

Xbox Series X / Xbox Series S: £249 / £449 at Microsoft
Microsoft is offering direct Xbox Series X pre-orders from its own UK store this week. Be one of the first to grab your new console from Microsoft directly at 8am BST - however we expect Microsoft to sell out quickly (that's what happened in Australia this morning) so again, be quick.

Xbox Series X (sold out) / Xbox Series S: £249 / £449 at Currys PC World
Currys PC World has fulfilled its allocation for Xbox Series X, but the Xbox Series S is still available. There's a queuing system in place so don't be put off if you have to wait a while until you can access the site before you can place your Xbox pre-order.

Xbox Series X / Xbox Series S: £249 / £449 at John Lewis
John Lewis might not be your first thought for Xbox pre-orders, but it offers a free two-year warranty on its electronics, and we're expecting this to include the next-gen Xbox as well. No other retailers can match that right now, so it's definitely worth considering. Its page STILL isn't live, but their Barbour collection has been updated so, you know, swings and roundabouts.

Xbox Series X (sold out) / Xbox Series S: £249 / £449 at Very
If you're heading to Very, the Xbox Series X is no longer available. Microsoft's cheaper albeit less powerful next-gen console, the Xbox Series S, is still up for grabs, though. We saw stock run out fast for the PS5, and while we don't know how many consoles Very has in the bag, we wouldn't hold on too long before trying to pre-order yours...

Xbox Series X / Xbox Series S: £249 / £449 at AO
AO is also offering Xbox Series X pre-orders this week. Again, we don't know yet how much stock the retailer has, but if you haven't had any luck with your pre-order so far, AO is definitely worth a shot.

Xbox Series X / Xbox Series S: £249 / £449 at Game
Game is well known for its video game deals, and a good bet for pre-ordering your Xbox Series X. The retailer hasn't had an easy time recently, but it's likely to have a decent supply given its laser focus on games-related products. Unfortunately Game's website has crashed due to demand. View Deal

Xbox Series X / Xbox Series S: £449 / £249 at Smyths Toys
Another retailer well-known for toys, but we're still not seeing much in the way of stock here - although you can grab the All Access pass from this retailer.View Deal
