Microsoft raises Xbox prices by up to 43%

Microsoft is raising Xbox prices in Europe and the UK by up to €200 or £170, with the 512GB Series S experiencing a 43% price increase and the 1TB Series X disc model rising over 30%. This marks the third round of price increases since May 2025, driven by rising RAM and storage costs from AI industry demand, making Microsoft's price bumps more dramatic than those of competitors. The 2TB model is being discontinued as part of the storage shortage response.
