If you’re not spending this weekend diving into Hollow Knight: Silksong, maybe it’s because you don’t have a console or gaming PC to play it on. Good news—now’s the perfect time to fix that. The Xbox Series S, Microsoft’s entry-level console, is currently on sale for $329 (13% off its $380 MSRP).
A price cut with some history
When the Xbox Series X|S first launched back in 2020, the Series S was just $300. Earlier this year, Microsoft raised prices, bumping it up by $80 to today’s $380 MSRP. This discount brings the price lower than the current list, but yes—it’s still $29 more than the launch price. Not ideal, but a deal’s a deal.

What you get with the Series S
The Xbox Series S is an all-digital console, meaning no discs—it comes with a controller and 512GB of internal storage(expandable with an external SSD). While it doesn’t hit native 4K like its bigger Series X sibling, it can still render at 1440p with HDR support and handle up to 120FPS for smooth performance.
Other highlights include:
- Quick Resume, letting you suspend multiple games and jump back in instantly without reloading.
- Xbox Velocity Architecture, powering ultra-fast load times.
- Streaming support: Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, YouTube, and more stream in full 4K.
In short, you’re still getting a compact, powerful console with great features at a price that’s easier on the wallet than the Series X.
Bottom line
For a limited time, you can pick up the Xbox Series S for $329. It’s not the lowest price we’ve ever seen, but if you’re looking for an affordable way to jump into Silksong—or just into the Xbox ecosystem—this might be the best deal going right now.
