Halo Infinite Limited Edition Xbox Series X Console launches today

Price, release date and info on the Halo-themed console and Elite controller.

Halo Infinite's release date has officially been announced (8th December 2021) and launching right alongside it to commemorate Halo's 20th anniversary, is a stunning new Halo Infinite Limited Edition Xbox Series X console and a new Halo-themed Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2.

The Halo-themed console has an RRP of £479.99 in the UK, €549.99 in Ireland and $549.99 in the US- so only a little more expensive than the standard Xbox Series X.

There were Halo edition Xbox Series X pre-order restocks right up until the console's release date of Monday 15th November 2021. It's not clear whether we'll see another restock in the UK after launch day however we'll make sure to let you know if there's a surprise drop. The Halo Infinite controller is currently also out of stock.

In the US, Best Buy is expected to drop today - this may be in-store only but it's worth checking online too. Target may also have stock available in-store. As for Microsoft and Amazon, we're hoping they will drop stock today or sometime this week - there maybe even be a Halo Infinite Elite controller restock too.

We'll be keeping this page updated with all the latest stock info, and we'll be highlighting the bundles offering the best value for money. If you're not fussed on a limited edition console, you might like to check out our stock alert page for standard Xbox Series X/ S consoles. We also keep an eye on the best Xbox deals right here.

The Halo-themed limited edition console includes a custom console design imprinted with stars, as seen from the surface of Zeta Halo. It also has a blue vent inspired by Cortana.
