It's that time again! GameStop has announced today that it will have "sizable" stock of Xbox Series X consoles as soon as this Wednesday, April 21, but they will only be available through the Xbox All Access program.
The consoles will be released online beginning at 9am CT, as highlighted below:
If you're not aware, Xbox All Access is a system where you pay $34.99 per-month across two years with no upfront costs for the console, and you also get two years' worth of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate thrown in as well.
Best of luck if you're trying to get one, and let us know if you're successful down below!

This is probably the best way to ensure the consoles end up in the hands of fans!
Yes, you are locked into paying more (total comes to $839.76 for a Series X, $599.76 for a Series S); but if you consider that the paying for a Series X and 2 years of Game Pass Ultimate separately comes to $859.75 ($659.75 for Series S + GPU), you are saving a little bit of money.
I mean, when you think about it, you don't have to pay for any 1st-party game at all for the first two years you own the system. Heck, you may not have to pay for ANY games at all for the first two years you own the system with Game Pass. That is savings all it itself!
Getting more people on GamePass this way with this huge drop tied in with All Access.. just another smart move by Microsoft.
A bit crap but at least you know scalpers aren't going to get these and real gamers can actually get there hands on one.
I have to assume any GameStop credit I have stored up to buy XSX is worthless with all access? Anyone know?
