The rumoured white Xbox One games console bundle complete with the new Sunset Overdrive game has been leaked over on a French retailer’s website this week, revealing it will most probably be priced at €399.
The listing for the white Xbox One was leaked on the Micromania.fr website and confirms earlier rumours that a white division of the next-generation Microsoft games console would be made available to consumers alongside the already available black version.
Exclusive Availability and Special Editions
Previously, white Xbox One consoles have only been made available to members of Microsoft’s internal development team or given out as charity gifts or on special occasions. This exclusivity made the white Xbox One a highly coveted item among gamers and collectors. The potential release of a white Xbox One to the general public marks a significant shift in Microsoft’s strategy, aiming to broaden the appeal of their console by offering more color options.
Earlier this year, rumours were also circulating that Microsoft is preparing to launch a limited edition version of their Xbox One games console equipped with 1TB of storage. This would offer double the 500GB of storage that is available with the standard console, catering to gamers who require more space for their extensive game libraries, downloadable content, and media files.
Potential Impact on the Market
The introduction of a white Xbox One bundle could have a notable impact on the market. For one, it provides consumers with more choices, which can be a significant factor in purchasing decisions. The inclusion of the “Sunset Overdrive” game in the bundle adds further value, as the game has been highly anticipated and well-received by the gaming community. This could drive sales not only of the console but also of the game itself.
Moreover, the potential release of a 1TB Xbox One console could address one of the common complaints about the current generation of consoles: insufficient storage space. As games become more complex and larger in size, the need for more storage becomes increasingly important. A 1TB console would appeal to hardcore gamers who download a lot of games and media, making it a practical choice for those who need the extra space.
More information about the 1TB Xbox One console is expected to be released by Microsoft later this year. As yet, Microsoft has not confirmed that a white Xbox One bundle will be made available to consumers, but as soon as any more information comes to light, we will keep you updated as always.
