Xbox Series X25 Pre-Orders Include Free Copy Of Halo: Campaign Evolved

Leaks from a reliable source revealed last week that the translucent green Xbox Series X being released to celebrate the platform’s 25th anniversary will cost $899.99. Xbox has now confirmed that the leak was accurate. It really is releasing a $900 console, but it’s throwing in a free game to try and soften the blow.

Revealed on Xbox Wire, pre-orders for the Xbox Series X25 are now open for a select few “dedicated fans” who would have been sent emails on Wednesday inviting them to place their pre-orders. For everyone else, the $900 X25 will be available to pre-order through the Xbox website from 10 am EST today.

That price will not only get you the retro-style console with matching controller created as an homage to the original Xbox, but also a copy of Halo: Campaign Evolved. A code for a digital copy of the Halo remake will be thrown in to sweeten the deal, which is nice, although it feels a little like a drop in the ocean when it comes to the never-ending increases in console costs.

Even with a free copy of Halo thrown in, the Series X25 will still be the most expensive home console Xbox has ever sold. Campaign Evolved costs $49.99. Subtract the cost of the remake from the $899.99 console MSRP, and that still leaves you with $850. That’s $50 more than the most expensive Xbox currently on the market.

99, does not. The thing is, not only is the Pro a far more powerful console, but it also has 2TB of storage, twice as much as the Series X25.
