To give you the most flexibility with how you purchase your games and provide you with arguably the best Xbox gaming experience, I would always recommend where possible that you nab yourself an Xbox Series X unit. But if you opt to go with the digital-exclusive Xbox Series S, your options will soon be expanded somewhat.
During today’s Xbox Showcase, Microsoft’s Xbox Team shared that a new Xbox Series S model will be available worldwide from 1 September 2023. This will be a 1TB SSD Xbox Series S model with a carbon black colour scheme.
When it comes to gaming, Xbox welcomes a community of gamers from around the world who play all kinds of games on a variety of devices they love. One thing we heard from gamers is that they wanted the option to have more storage included with their consoles.

With double the data storage, you won’t need to clear out your install directory as frequently, while the carbon black colour scheme will give it a comparable appearance to the Xbox Series X – sans disc drive which is already discreet on the XSX.
The new Xbox Series S model will be available 1 September 2023, priced at $349.99 USD or local equivalent. Prices in AUD start from $499.00. Pre-orders are being taken via the Xbox website / Microsoft Store, with availability via storefronts and other retailers to come in the following weeks.
