XBOX One Black Friday deals may be better value than usual this year, due to a certain new release.
With the Xbox Series X scheduled for a ‘Holidays’ 2020 arrival, what could that mean for the Xbox One? We’re keeping tabs.
Just because a product is in a Black Friday sale, doesn’t mean you can’t find it, or something similar, cheaper elsewhere. Always shop around before you spend your money.
When is Black Friday 2020?
Black Friday falls on November 27 this year, as it’s always the day after the fourth Thursday of November (America’s Thanksgiving holiday).
Yet while Black Friday itself is only one day, the online sales around it can start up to two weeks before.
This year we’d expect plenty of gaming sales, including Xbox One Black Friday deals from retailers with remaining stock.

Black Friday 2020 Xbox One deals to look out for
It’s hard to know what to expect for Black Friday with Xbox One deals.
That’s due to planned release of the Xbox Series X, scheduled for ‘Holidays 2020’ – or Thanksgiving, the prime Black Friday period.
As production of the Xbox one X and Xbox One S has now stopped, both are being discontinued. But that doesn’t mean there won’t be deals.
In fact quite the opposite: it’s likely Xbox One Black Friday deals will feature big price-cuts and consoles might even be bundled with smarthpones.
That means plenty of value to be found, and safe in the knowledge the Xbox One X and S should still be supported for the next two to three years.
For stores, look to retailers like Game, Currys, Argos, Very, AO.com, and Microsoft itself.

How much is the Xbox on Black Friday?
The cost of an Xbox on Black Friday really depends on the bundle and what’s included.
While currently an Xbox One X with one contrioller costs around £390, the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition (also with one controller) costs £199.
Bundles will generally increase the price for each, but the release of the Xbox Series X may mean larger savings than usual this year.
As the Series X is expected to be around £449, that could push both the One X and One S even further down in price.
Whatever the price of Xboxes come Black Friday, we’ll have our pick of the deals here.
