This Black Friday, why not treat yourself or surprise a loved one with a gaming gift that’s both impressive and budget-friendly? Walmart’s Black Friday deals are presenting a fantastic opportunity to grab one of Microsoft’s premier gaming consoles at a $50 discount.
Typically priced at $449, the Xbox Series X is currently available for only $398 in Walmart’s sale. This console is crafted with gamers in mind, featuring a custom Zen 2 CPU with 8 Cores clocked at 3.8GHz and an AMD RDNA 2 GPU capable of delivering stunning 4K graphics at up to 120FPS, provided you have a compatible TV or monitor with a variable refresh rate. Plus, with 1TB of storage, you have plenty of room to install your favorite games, ready to launch in mere moments.
This particular model of the Xbox Series X comes in a sleek “Robot-White” color and is a digital-only version, so there’s no disk drive. It also boasts Dolby Atmos, HDMI 2.1, and USB 3.1 connectivity, ensuring a comprehensive gaming experience right in your living room. Even though the Series X has been on the market for a while, it remains one of the top ways to enjoy gaming, and it’s more affordable than many mid-range PC graphics cards.
Another bonus of this console—and its cousin, the Series S—is its backward compatibility, which supports a wide range of games and accessories from previous Xbox generations. With a Game Pass subscription, you gain access to hundreds of games, including the latest AAA titles on their release day. Personally, I use a Game Pass Ultimate subscription, allowing me to enjoy games on both my PC and Series X. The seamless sharing of progress and saves between devices is superb, letting me switch from my desk to a cozy spot on the sofa with ease, all while enjoying a large screen.
