Xbox Series X restocks are certainly slowing a little this week. While we did see some new stock landing over the last couple of weeks across the US and UK, those chances to buy Xbox Series X seem to have dried up now.
Microsoft recently admitted that supply delays could last “at least through June”, with a “constrained” number of units available until March 31. Chip shortages from AMD has kept Xbox Series X restocks from our shelves, but there are consoles out there. We’d recommend paying extra close attention to the retailers below, then, for any more drops over the next few weeks.
Retailers like Best Buy, GameStop and Microsoft have previously been offering the next-gen console, with UK retailers like Amazon and Very bringing the console to the shelves as well. Be sure to check in with these retailers, and the ones listed below, for more updates on upcoming drops.

Xbox Series X: check for latest stock updates at Amazon
Amazon had Xbox Series X stock available over the last few weeks, but it sold out within about 5 minutes. That means you’ll want to keep the hunt going, but check back here regularly as things are going to move quickly when those consoles return.

Where to buy Xbox Series X: where should you check first?
Amazon
Amazon hasn’t had many Xbox Series X restocks over the last few weeks, but we’d keep checking for stock because word is likely to travel fast once more units do hit these lofty shelves and you’ll have to be at the front of the line to grab one.

Microsoft
Microsoft held on pretty well in the first wave of stock, lasting longer than other retailers with quick refreshes. We saw more stock landing at the start of the Black Friday week here, but since then there hasn’t been much movement. Keep checking in though, because you can also grab discounted controllers here as well.

Best Buy
Best Buy offered the chance to buy Xbox Series X on November 22, and again on November 28, but stock is still pretty hard to come by. We may well see more units hitting the shelves soon, however, so keep your eyes peeled as Best Buy is throwing in a discounted controller with these orders as well.

Walmart
Walmart has been restocking Xbox Series X far more frequently than other retailers – but that stock is being snapped up incredibly quickly. The next restock is scheduled for ‘Black Friday’, so it’s anyone’s guess when you’ll be able to buy Xbox Series X and we’d keep that refresh button hot.

Xbox Series X: Check for latest stock updates at Very
Very had another quick flash of stock, with the chance to buy Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S briefly glimpsing into view. That’s now all gone, however, but keep an eye here as things are obviously moving in the right direction.

Where to buy Xbox Series X: which UK retailers should you check first?
Amazon
Amazon hasn’t seen too many Xbox Series X restocks over the last few weeks, but we’d still keep a close eye over the next few days. Any stock that does appear here is going to move quickly, so you’ll need to be fast to catch it.

Microsoft
Microsoft was offering the chance to buy Xbox Series X at the start of the Black Friday week, but we haven’t seen much of a return since then. It’s worth noting, however, that the Xbox Series S managed to stay in stock a lot longer here so it’s worth keeping an eye on if you’re after the cheaper console.

Very
Very has offered another chance to buy Xbox Series X in the last few weeks, with higher value bundles also available. That means stock of the individual console tends to sell out here as fast as you would expect, but if you’re happy to pay for extra controllers or Game Pass subscriptions you might have an easier time picking up the console here.

Currys
Currys has fallen quiet since offering the Xbox Series X on the shelves last month. Keep checking in though because more units could be on their way at any time.

When will you be able to buy Xbox Series X?
Of course, these stock issues can only last so long – you’ll be able to buy Xbox Series X for a non-inflated scalper price relatively easily at some point in the future. We don’t know when these stock issues will ease, but expect regular Xbox Series X restocks over the next few weeks.
How to buy Xbox Series X: our top tips
1. Find your retailers
The lists above offer up all the latest updates on which retailers are likely to bring more chances to buy Xbox Series X over the next few days. Prioritise larger retailers as they’re the most likely to offer up more Xbox Series X stock and are also already set up for fast shipping as well.
2. Prepare your wallet
We’re sure you’ve already prepared to spend some cash, but having your details at the ready will save you valuable time when that first wave of stock hits. Better yet, if you’re comfortable saving your payment details or using PayPal you’re in for a much less stressful experience.
3. Sign in
Many retailers will need an email address alongside your shipping information to allow you to checkout, and this is causing many shoppers looking to buy Xbox Series X to lose valuable seconds. Be sure to sign into these retailers if you already have an account or create one if not. Of course, if you’re not comfortable signing in or creating an account, keep your email address and shipping information handy for a quick copy and paste when you’re against the clock.
4. Find the product page
We’ll be linking you straight to the product page of either the Xbox Series X or the Xbox Series S when stock does arrive. However, if you’re going it alone you’ll want to make sure you’re on the correct product page ahead of time to avoid spending those crucial seconds searching for the console itself on a retailer website. Plus, if demand skyrockets, sites run the risk of crashing which can be particularly frustrating if you’re still trying to navigate the virtual aisles.
5. Don’t give up
If all is going to plan but stock runs out at the final hurdle don’t give up. We’ve seen retailers like Best Buy replenishing their stock every few minutes when they go live with a new batch, which means quick refreshes can get you back in the game in seconds.
Can you buy Xbox Series X in store?
In the US, in-store stock varies by region, but we are seeing some success with Target. Be sure to check in-store stock levels early in the morning and head down straight away if you spot consoles available. Stores are allocating what little stock they have on a first come first served basis, but it is possible to buy Xbox Series X in person.
If you’re in the UK, things are a little different. Obviously the current lockdown has scuppered many plans to buy Xbox Series X in store.
