- Xbox Series X limited edition console launches on Black Friday with a €900 price tag (per Digital Foundry)
- The special edition arrives with a $899 US price tag, per TechPowerUp's headline
- TechPowerUp's coverage names the hardware the Xbox Series X25 Limited Edition Console, indicating a 25th-anniversary tie-in
- CNET frames the pricing as confirming "2026 Is a Bad Year for Gamers" in its headline
- Multiple outlets describe the release as the most expensive Xbox hardware to date based on the truncated CNET and aggregator headlines
Why it matters: A limited edition Xbox Series X launching on Black Friday at €900/$899 sets a new pricing high for Xbox hardware, and the outlet consensus (Digital Foundry, TechPowerUp, CNET) is that this positions the console as a premium collector's item rather than a mainstream holiday buy, sharpening the cost burden on gamers during peak shopping season.
