console configurations for launch ahead of the holiday season. Admittedly, the new offerings aren’t earth-shattering, mainly switching up console ****** and storage options.

said it will release the Xbox Series X – 1TB Digital Edition in ****** White, and Xbox Series X – 2TB Galaxy ****** Special Edition, in time for Christmas. It has also readied an Xbox Series S – 1TB in ****** White.

’s biggest eye-brow-raiser at its showcase was probably the Xbox Series X – 1TB Digital Edition. Removing the optical drive should shave a few dollars off the Xbox Series X console price for digital-only gamers, and it will be available later this year for a $449.99/€499.99 ERP.

Later in the interview, it was interesting to hear Spencer say that he thinks handhelds should play games locally, like the Asus ROG Ally, or Valve’s Steam Deck.
