Microsoft Introduces An Xbox Series S Starter Bundle, Comes With 3 Months Of Game Pass

The Series S starter bundle retails for the same price as the base console, which makes this deal all the more sweeter.

Despite having markedly weaker hardware when compared to contemporaries, the Xbox Series S continues to be a great choice for gamers on a budget. Microsoft continues to put its efforts towards catering to that niche audience and has announced a new Xbox Series S starter bundle which will be launching on October 31 this year.

The bundle will come with 3 months of free access to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, and that too – without any added cost. This essentially means that the starter bundle will retail at the same $300 price tag, which nets you a total saving of approximately $50.

Xbox Game Pass is undoubtedly the best way to game on a budget, and giving players free access to the service is a great move to ease consumers into this ecosystem. Microsoft has also rebranded Xbox Live Gold to Xbox Game Pass Core
