Xbox Series X sold out

Reports suggest that Xbox Series X and Series S have been sold out at major retailers already. In the UK, The USA, and many more places, the pre-orders have been sold out. It was a smart tactic by Microsoft to allow the users to pre-order a lot earlier than its release date so that they can measure the demand for the console and accordingly provide the supply for it.

Every major retailer had its own ways to balance this type of demand for the console. Places like Amazon and BestBuy did not go online with the pre-orders until an hour later of the pre-given time by Microsoft. Places like GameStop had to put in artificial queues on their website to conduct the sales in an orderly fashion and also to not overload the server with users. Find a list of retailers that have announced the Xbox Series X and Series S has been sold out below:

  • BestBuy
  • Amazon
  • GameStop
  • Newegg
  • Walmart
  • Target
  • Microsoft

All of these retailers have announced that the console is sold out and the customers should check again when the console hits the stores.
