Xbox Series S consoles are reportedly getting a price hike in India — again. As per games analyst Rishi Alwani, Microsoft's new-gen gaming console will now cost Rs. 39,990, with pre-orders for the same going into effect on January 10. That's over a 5 percent increase, with the Series S previously listed at Rs. 37,990 back in August. This is the third price hike in the span of six months, and likely owes credit to the weakening power of the Indian Rupee (INR) against the US Dollar (USD). Gadgets 360 has reached out to Microsoft India for comment, and we will update this story when we hear an update. At launch in 2020, the Xbox Series S was listed at Rs. 34,990.
At the time of writing, both Fall Guys — at the same rate from the e2z store.
Xbox wireless controllers were also subject to the cost increase — the Robot White and Carbon Black variants went up from Rs. 5,690 to Rs. 5,990. Meanwhile, the Electric Volt variant is currently priced at Rs. 6,590 — previously, Rs. 6,290.
Around that time, even August.
