Xbox One X Pre-Orders Available Today; “Project Scorpio Edition” Officially Announced

Microsoft finally announced when you'll be able to pre-order an Xbox One X.

[neocores8055]

pre-ordered.... for that 1 lucky person who does not get one.

[Ausbo]

There will be plenty of stock. You won't make anything

[naruga]

project Scorpio edition =LOL ....aka MS--->" we know that we named the console terribly( XoneX) and that the previous name was better ..so here we offer aspecial edition with the old name because otherwise many of you, you wont spot the diference between XoneX and Xone and wont buy it " ...tragic

[neocores8055]

Who said i would sell for over the price? LoL i did the same with the switch. if someone wants it and its sold out they can have the pre-order and pay the price thats listed nice try buddy. FYI he said they are VERY LIMITED

[Pantz]

They're all sold out.

[DarXyde]

I mean... it's a limited edition of new hardware. I would think it'll do pretty well.

Can't say I'm a fan of scalping though.

[optimus]

@naruga...just so you know the acronym for the XBoxOneX does in fact spell out XBOX so that was a factor in naming it that. Down the road when all the other systems are phased out then there will only be 1, the XBOX.

[gamer7804]

already sold out at local gamestops and amazon though. you can still find them at best buy, target, and from microsoft, but its only been on sale a few hours.

[dcbronco]

Limited edition or not, I bet there were at least 3 or 4 million. So right off the bat it is very successful. Christmas will bring more sales. So it could hit 6 million after tax time especially with the trade-in program. The question is will most trade-in a S to get them.

[ChipdiddyChip]

Ive pre ordered mine via Microsoft Store :)

[SmielmaN]

I just this moment saw they were up for presale. EB Games link didn't work but bestbuy.ca and Walmart.ca have them (though Walmart didn't specify Project Scorpio Edition).

Ordered one from BestBuy. I have over 800+ positive feedback on EBay. Hoping for a Scorpio sell out!

[FITgamer]

Well considering how long "Day One" edition Xbox Ones were available you might be sitting on that thing for a year.

[thekhurg]

I remember Amazon having day one editions over a year after launch.

[UnHoly_One]

Microsoft store still has them.

[itsmebryan]

Well they seem to be working selling out at some places.

[Lou Ferrigno]

looks awesome, i mean.. i do wish the controller would of had more green in it , maybe the outline, but overrall it's cool to see them giving the fans what they liked.. the name and the console.

[mark_parch]

yep agree the controller would have looked sick if it had green sticks but still black grips on top and maybe green trigers

[Yohshida]

thats it? really?

[Yohshida]

Also, how many did they make? 2? Cant even preorder it over Amazon Germany anymore. Great Fanservice MS, you did a awesome job on this one. I pass on the X

[ninsigma]

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp...

still up on Amazon Uk if that works for you.

[Krysis]

Really because of that you pass? Whatever I guess, thanks for taking time out of your undoubtedly interesting life for the update.

[Yohshida]

@ninsigma

Dont have a Amazon UK account and wont make one

@Krysis

Yes, its because this just show how much out of touch Microsoft is with germany. At this point I think they hate us more than any other country. We dont get a lot of Games, Deals etc. Everything is translated horrible. We always get things LAST. Now we get like 2 consoles that sell out in 10 min. After all, freaking gamescom is in GERMANY, but nah. Sorry im out with this one. Wont spend money on a company that doesnt support us.

[BadElf]

lol its Microsofts fault you were slow....ha!

[Gazondaily]

Amazon UK sold out too

[DemonChicken]

@ VideoGameLab

You should be able to login on with your .de credentials.

My first amazon account is the UK, and I can login with the same credentials in almost every region and buy stuff including .de, .com, .ca, and .fr. So you do not need to create another account.

[Yohshida]

You do have to with a german Account

[conanlifts]

Do Microsoft not have a Germany store to preorder it from directly? Just because a single store has sold out there must be alternate location to buy from.

[XStation4pio_Pro]

I am officially pre-ordered. Haters can suck my 6 TFLOPs. And yeah. I still have a PS4 pro too and will continue to play it because I care more about gaming than the brands it comes from.

[nyctophilia13]

I'm a PS4 Pro owner as well and I ordered one too. If I can flip it for a profit, I will. If not, I'll crack it open and play multiplatform games and 4k Blurays on it. My OLED is always thirsty for more 4k content.

[zerocarnage]

Crack it open dude.

[OffRoadKing]

What about those who aren't brand loyal but dont just buy things because it says 6 TFLOPS on the box and has nothing to play on it.

[Lennoxb63]

Well, people like you didn't have to come to this article in the first place. I mean if it has nothing to play on it that you're interested in than what's the point in commenting?

[OffRoadKing]

@Lennoxb63

I was responding to a specific statement made by a commentor so calm down. And FYI its the comment section its for commenting, if you dont like what I have to say whats the point in replying?

[OffRoadKing]

@ fleecejohnson75

Well most intelligent people would realize its a comment section and people have the right to comment with an opposite point of view. They also have the right to reply to a statement just like you did. Then again you could have just ignored what I said and bypassed it all together and not felt the need to interject into a conversation you had nothing to do with, I guess by your own definition you're not normal. Honestly it just comes off as a little disingenuous and kind of stupid on your part.

[Gazondaily]

Yeah because people are buying purely because of brand loyalty and the fact that it's 6 tflops...

"has nothing to play on it."

Don't whinge when you make idiotic statements like this

[Kribwalker]

Every multiplat game is playable on it, and multiplats are typically the top selling games. So how can you say you can't play anything on it. That's a bold face lie

[V0LT]

.

[Movefasta1993]

ryse,a launch game,looks better than any game releasing 4 years after and on a more powerful console.wtf?

[XStation4pio_Pro]

You remember anthem, right? The one x will undoubtedly have the definitive console versions of pretty much every multiplatform title due to its significant power advantage and the lack of a need to emulate so that any game gets a performance boost regardless of extra patching beyond that.

[xX-oldboy-Xx]

in terms of res and textures - yes, but it's still bound to the limitations of the Xbox one.

[Movefasta1993]

Exclusive wise,no Microsoft game looks better than their launch game.That's crazy!

[Movefasta1993]

Anthem will get an epic downgrade

[morganfell]

" definitive console versions"

The fact you have to use the word console reveals what you are doing in order to fool yourself.

[freshslicepizza]

@morganfell
"The fact you have to use the word console reveals what you are doing in order to fool yourself."

Who is he trying to fool, the 7.5 million PS4 owners who bought Fallout 4? Until we see a masssive transition of gamers flocking to the PC over their consoles then his comment holds major relevance. Every month most games in the top sales charts are multiplat games that are also available on the PC.

Just because 90% of the people on thise site like to talk about exclusives that make up 10% of the total software sales doesn't mean we all think like that.

[butchertroll]

On Xbox One only.

[PlayTheGameBro]

Wish they had a bundle that includes the Elite Controller

[Razzer]

GameStop has it in the US. Costs $100 more.

http://www.gamestop.com/con...

[PlayTheGameBro]

Thanks!

[LAWSON72]

I preordered, probably won't go through with it but I figured what the hell. Maybe a friend will want one.

[343_Guilty_Spark]

I don't see the point in preordering.

[Eonjay]

I thought the same thing but remember what is being advertised is a 'limited edition' version that is is short production. So it really matters if that specific thing matters to you.

[343_Guilty_Spark]

The funny thing is the regular edition looks better than the Scorpio edition.

[Obscure_Observer]

Pre-Ordered! Bring me that sweet power!!! 100+ enhanced tittles! WoW!!!

[Bigpappy]

Getting mine at Game Stop in the morning. I haven't been there in 4 years. I am giving up my Xbox one original for the $100. So I'll pay $399. Wouldn't be needing my X1 after I get the X.

[CR7JUVE1897]

When I was on the phone with Gamestop this morningb, they told me that if you are a Pro Member, you get an additional 60% towards the trade in for it. I have my Original one with Kinect boxed up and ready to go after work. Thankfully you can pre-pay for it in full when you go. Although they did tell me that you can only pre-order the base version of it.

[DivineAssault]

Games?

[King_Lothric]

100+ enhanced old titles?

😂

[Gman32]

Hes one of those type people dont pay him no mind

[Finch]

I'm in

[PistolsAtDawn]

Ordered and paid off

[2cents]

Pre-order placed.

[StifflerK]

I got my pre-order in with a few games, but now comes the long wait till Nov 7th.

[Tankbusta40]

I hear ya, ive had a 4k TV with hdr for a few months now and haven't seen what 4k is yet.

[mark_parch]

I pre ordered at Tesco in the uk.says can ick it up from store on nov 6th

[King_Lothric]

Good luck to Xbox x. They really need to fight hard to compete with Switch.

[Tankbusta40]

I'm glad I signed up for email notifications and was able to snag one...they sold out quickly on Amazon

[NobleRed]

Preordered and It will be sold on eBay.

[houyi111]

World premiere: I am not preordering for this.

[raggy-rocket]

After watching the hands on I'll definitely get this version. Wonder why only this is on sale and not the standard edition? Couldn't find it anywhere. I'll order it sometime this week. Hopefully it's not as limited as they say

[thexmanone]

Man sold out on amazon already

https://www.amazon.com/gp/p...

[DaFeelz]

Barely got mine at Gamestop. 2nd to last one and the person behind me took take last one. LA is sold out... at least at Gamestop anyway

[ElementX]

I have a feeling that the X will be sold out a lot of places, however MS won't make the same mistake Nintendo does, they'll be sure to have more consoles available.

[yellowgerbil]

Ms wish they could make that mistake. They've already sold almost 1/5th of what ms has in 4 years

[jhoward585]

I got mines baby.

[Anomander]

I managed to get my Pre-order in at Walmart. Pick up will be Nov. 10th.

[LP-Eleven]

Got mine pre-ordered!

[XStation4pio_Pro]

Ordered. Project Scorpio Edittion. Can’t wait for that forza7 4k/60 love.

[Anomander]

Forza 7 and Star Wars Battlefront 2 are the two I am looking forward to the most. Love the fact they are doing an Empire story line!

[Tedakin]

You can only order the PS version right now. I just want the regular solid black edition.

[Dami4n24]

https://www.walmart.com/ip/...

[Dami4n24]

Walmart still has them availbe to pre order so does GameStop but it's 100 more but comes with an elite controller aswell

[Condemnedman]

got mine 😆

[jokerisalive]

Just got my Project Scorpio preorder in where my buddy manages over at GameStop. Only twelve going to his store and as I was there people were lining up. My brother and I were one of the first few lucky enough to get ours in before they went and they were going FAST. One guy was trading in his Pro and an Xbox one s. Minimum deposit is $100.00 at GameStop.

[Death]

I went to my local Microsoft store. No money needed for the preorder. Was kind of weird.

[Hroach616]

$599 here in Canada. Outrages. Buuuut I still pre ordered one lol because reasons

[2pacalypsenow]

Got mine pre ordered

[dcbronco]

Apparently the headline is wrong. It is being said it's already sold out. If true that's some iPhone type stuff.

[DafunkyRebel]

Scalper sobs bought them all

[CyberRekkr]

preordered it today!

[gamer7804]

amazon and local gamestops already sold out. i'd check gamestop online, best buy, target if you want to get one.

[Ninte]

$749 nz yeah, nah.

[inxine]

back peddling on the name eh? haha. still, it looks like my old vhs recorder.

[Trekster_Gamer]

No, not back peddling just listening to the fans that like the name Xbox One Scorpio!!

[inxine]

thats literally back paddeling tho, uve just said it urself lol

[BadElf]

Snagged it! Pumped

[Gman32]

I pre-order mines at gamestop

[ThatDudeMunkee]

I'm holding off. I can't justify it at this point. Sure, I love the idea of the upgraded experience for Anthem, but I can't justify the price difference, even now. If Microsoft announces a HUGE line-up for 2019 or late 2018. I may be on board.

[Bigpappy]

$100 game is not enough for some people. I respect that I guess.

[Trekster_Gamer]

Pre-ordered the Xbox One Scorpio Edition can't wait!!

[SixFragz]

I wouldn't worry about pre-ordering this console...

There will be a surplus and surely a price drop due to high disinterest regardless.

Hell, I might just feel bad enough that this console isn't getting any love, and just go to the shelter and adopt one. It'll have a warm spot to rest in my house where all the set top boxes do.

[annashetty]

amazing overall it's cool to see them giving the fans what they liked

[andrewsquall]

Really getting flashbacks to Xbone's launch with the Day One Edition and that was announced at an awful Gamescom event too.

[SixFragz]

You speak the truth...

But deluded Xbots roam this article and hand out downvotes because they are sensitive to the truth, and more so, reality.

The set top box is a blasphemous excuse for a video gaming console. A disastrous first party dilemma sure doesn't help, and there is absolutely zero fan service. Instead of working on making the XBone One a substantial console, they'd rather shove 15 million different iterations of that same console in consumers faces, as opposed to giving consumers substantial things to do on the console itself.

Tragic.

[Gaming4Life1981]

Fml.......im late to see this and have to wait til tomorrow.....they better be available lol. How much are they asking to preorder?

[Matrix6]

I hope Sony does something like this for PS5, where the first initial batches of the console (early adopters) feels a little optionally special. Instead of feeling a little ripped off when the prices go down by $50 just months after.

[CR7JUVE1897]

I've got my original Xbox One with Kinect boxed up and ready to go to Gamestop after work.
