Microsoft is yet to offiially release the latest Xbox Series X and S models but a lot is already known about the models including their designs, specifications and even the expected retial prices. Well, one more detail have emerged concerning the cheaper Xbox Series S and it is a surprising one.
A Reddit user who claimed to have received the Xbox Series S a week before the official release has shared a shocking detail which is that the console arrives with just 364GB of available storage space.
On paper, the console actually features 512GB storage but apparently, not all the storage will be available to users. Why this is of concern is the fact that the Series S doesn’t feature a disc drive meaning you can only use the console by installing a digital copy of the game you wish to play. The storage size will only afford users the chance to install one or two games before running out of storage space. Several commenters on the thread did note that the 364GB available storage is barely enough to install Call of Duty: Modern Warfare on the console. However, you can get a separate hard drive but that would shave off some extra dollars out of your wallet. We can’t confirm this information though, so it best to wait until it officially starts shipping before concluding.
Both the Series X and Series S are expected to launch on November 10th, with the previously announced high-end Series X selling for $499. As previously reported, the Series S (codenamed Lockhart) is designed to play next-gen games in a smaller, cheaper package with less GPU power and lower resolution output than the Series X. The console is expected to come with 1440p support, ray tracing, and 512GB SSD.
