Looking to treat yourself or someone special this Black Friday? Walmart’s got you covered with an enticing deal that’s perfect for gamers. You can grab Microsoft’s powerhouse console, the Xbox Series X, and enjoy a nifty $50 off the regular price, just in time for an early Christmas gift if that’s on your radar.
Typically, the Xbox Series X goes for $449, but thanks to Walmart’s attractive Black Friday offer, it’s now available for just $398. This isn’t just any gaming console—it’s engineered with serious players in mind. Packed inside is a custom Zen 2 CPU with eight cores running at an impressive 3.8GHz, alongside a bespoke AMD RDNA 2 GPU capable of delivering stunning 4K visuals at up to 120 frames per second. Better yet, its 1TB storage means you won’t have to wait long to dive into your favorite games.
This particular model flaunts a sleek “Robot-White” design and is a digital-only version, meaning it doesn’t come with a disk drive. Yet, it still offers a complete gaming immersion with features like Dolby Atmos, HDMI 2.1, and USB 3.1 connectivity. Even though the Series X has been around for a while, it remains one of the top ways to enjoy gaming, offering more bang for your buck than many mid-range PC graphics cards.
What’s more, the Xbox Series X, along with its smaller sibling the Series S, offers backward compatibility with a plethora of games and accessories from previous Xbox generations. Combine that with a Game Pass subscription, and you unlock access to hundreds of games, including brand-new triple-A titles on launch day. Personally, I’ve experienced the benefits of a Game Pass Ultimate subscription, which lets me play on both my PC and the Series X. It’s pretty seamless, with game progress and saves syncing across platforms. This convenience makes it easy to switch from the desk to the couch, where you can enjoy gaming on a larger screen and kick back in comfort.
