Best Xbox deals for May 2022
The best deals on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox games, Game Pass, accessories and more.The new Microsoft consoles are now firmly here and present, and whether you've managed to grab a new Xbox Series X/S already, are getting ready to grab one soon or you're simply building on your lovable library of Xbox One games, there's a lot to pick from. And though the new consoles aren't likely to be discounted soon, the fact that most of the games will carry over means you can grab a deal on bestsellers now, or stack up on the best subscriptions like Xbox Game Pass or Xbox Live Gold for the near future.
So whether you're looking for a new Xbox Series X or S, Xbox games, controllers, Game Pass Ultimate subscriptions or accessories, there are plenty of great deals to tuck into this month.
On this page:

Before we dive in, if you or whoever you're buying for has an Xbox Series S, it's an all-digital console that can't play discs. So, you'll have to buy your games directly from the Xbox digital store, or you can purchase gift cards that can then be redeemed to spend on the store.
The Xbox Series X does play discs, and the consoles have been hard to find in the past but are staying in stock more regularly now. Microsoft heavily discounted the Xbox One S and X consoles after they were discontinued, but we'd recommend staying clear of these and grabbing a Series S instead.
Best Xbox Series X deals
Over a year after its release and it's finally getting easier to find the Series X in stores in the UK. Stock issues could easily appear again though, so it's best to be quick if you do find one online.
Amazon restocked the Xbox Series X on 1st March around 8am, and it is still in stock at the time of writing. There's also a bundle with 3 months of Xbox Game Pass available at Currys.
- Xbox Series X and 3 Month Game Pass Ultimate Bundle - 1 TB- £464 at Currys with code FNDDGAMING

Some retailers are building their own bundles including controllers and other accessories while Xbox recently released a bundle including exclusive Rocket League and Fortnite cosmetics for the RRP of £249.

Best Xbox game deals
While most of the Xbox's best games are available through Game Pass Ultimate, there are plenty of third-party titles you won't find on the subscription service. Third-party games that end up on Game Pass also tend to drop in price, which is great if you don't plan on becoming a member anytime soon.

Best Xbox Game Pass Ultimate deals

Even when it's full price, Microsoft's Xbox Game Pass is one of the best deals in the gaming world: access to over 100 games for just over a tenner every month. That said, you can save a little extra on your subscription if you know where to look.
If you're new to the world of Xbox, you can get your first month of Game Pass Ultimate for free by signing up directly through Microsoft. After that, you'll be charged £10.99 per month, or you can cancel and grab one of the subscriptions below for cheaper instead…
- Xbox Game Pass - £1 for your first month from Microsoft
- 3 months' PC Game Pass subscription - £1 at Microsoft
- 3 months' Xbox Game Pass for PC - £19.85 from ShopTo (Was £24.99)
- 3 months' Xbox Game Pass Ultimate- £24.95 from ShopTo (Was £29.99)
Best Xbox controller deals
It's not often that Xbox controllers drop below their RRP of £54.99, but some retailers knock a fiver off them from time to time. We've left the best deals on Xbox controllers below, as well as some great deals on third-party and pro controllers.
UK
- Xbox Elite Series 2 wireless controller - £139.99 at Microsoft Store (was £159.99)
- Razer Wolverine V2 wired controller - £76.99 at Amazon
US
- Microsoft Xbox Series X Wireless Controller (Robot White) - $49.49 at GameStop (was $59.99)
- Xbox Elite Series 2 wireless controller - $139.99 at Microsoft Store (was $179.99)
Best Xbox accessory deals
If you've got a Game Pass Ultimate subscription, the storage space on your console is going to dry up pretty quickly. We'd recommend grabbing an external HDD or SSD to store your games on, which will save you from having to redownload them every time. You can just move them across from the drive to the console instead.
While the PS5's internal memory can be upgraded using a compatible SSD with a heatsink, the only way to upgrade the internal memory of the Series X/S is with the official Seagate memory expansion card. It's pretty expensive, but it's on sale at a slightly reduced price of £198.99 right now. It was cheaper last month for £184.99 so we expect it will go further down in price again in the future.
UK
- Seagate 4TB Game Drive for Xbox Game Pass Special Edition - £99.99 at Very
- 1TB Seagate Expansion Memory Card (SSD) - £197 at Amazon
US
- Seagate 2TB Game Drive for Xbox One - $79.99 at GameStop (was $92.49)
- WD_BLACK 2TB P10 Game Drive - $79.99 at Amazon (was $89.99)
