The Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S were both selling out within just a few hours after being made available for pre-order back in September, but more units will be allocated to retailers at launch.
For the UK, Microsoft has confirmed that various retailers will have "limited" pre-order stock of the two systems, but you'll need to be online to at 8AM GMT on Tuesday, November 10th to secure yours.
Here's a list of retailers that are guaranteed to have *pre-order* stock on launch day:
- Microsoft Store
- GAME
- AO.com
- Curry's PC World
- Tesco
- Very
- Littlewoods
That's all the information we have for now, but Microsoft advises to check with your preferred retailer for further information on stock availability, how to secure your order and expected delivery ETA.
"The consoles in this allocation arrive at a later date [than launch day]. We’re just offering up the ability to pre-order from that stock."

@Medic_Alert great site, I used it to grab a PS5 and fingers crossed I’ll get it launch day or not long after.
For anyone who wants to buy an Xbox this is great news, good luck picking one up all!
I bought an Xbox preorder on ebay and sold my PS5 that way so its still effectively costing me retail price. Only downside is I'll have to wait a couple more days.
Ok that means every single person that preordered up until in any of those stores for delivery at home or click and collect now due to COVID should get their console day one with no issues. Let’s just see what happens as Game UK are not guaranteeing day one delivery if you managed to preorder over the last month or so for day one. VERY INTERESTING.
Ok it seems Game UK have a date of the 18th of December 2020 for this new day one preorder stock. It’s get all way above my brain nowadays.
Must be my age 😂
Fingers crossed I can secure one of these this time. But since I'm still working while most of the country is on lockdown, I seriously doubt my chances.
I'm assuming i'm getting my Series X on launch day, as Microsoft took payment for my order last night.
