Reportedly launches 10th November alongside Series X, priced $499.
Microsoft has at last lifted the lid on Xbox Series S, its lower-powered next-gen console which it has confirmed will launch for $299. [UPDATE: And for £249 in the UK.]
Images and pricing of the Series S were posted overnight by Thurrot and Windows Central, which both report the beefier Xbox Series X will launch for $499. Both consoles are expected to release together on 10th November.
Following these leaks, Microsoft finally confirmed the Series S for itself in the tweet below.
? Let?s make it official!

Microsoft calls Series S its "smallest Xbox ever" and another leak, below, has shown off the console's dimensions in comparison to the Series X. It is much smaller - shorter in height and around half as chunky in size. As expected, there's no disc drive.
Other details mentioned in last night's reports include a $25/month financing option for Series S, and a $35/month option for Series X, both of which Microsoft is apparently keen to offer worldwide.

Of course, the world has known about the existence of Xbox Series S for some time now - through various leaks of its name on official packaging, and from earlier whispers of a lower-powered console pegged at around 4TF (compared to the Series X's 12TF). Microsoft is yet to talk technical specs for the Series S, but it's clear a full reveal is now imminent.
Earlier this year I reported Series S had once been planned for a much earlier reveal - though Microsoft's plans changed when E3 2020 was cancelled, leaving June awkwardly quiet for next-gen news. Microsoft's next considered an August unveiling, until a final decision to delay its announcement until September.
