Xbox Series X and S latest – John Lewis SOLD OUT as UK stock runs dry – live pre-order news and lockdown reservations

THE new Xbox Series X and S consoles went on sale around the world this morning – but they’re selling out everywhere FAST.

The £449 machine boasts 8k graphics and a powerful processor that all but eliminates loading times – so it’s no surprise they’re selling out fast.

Earlier John Lewis confirmed they’d kept stock aside for 8am today – but that already appears to have sold out.

Pre-orders for the gaming machines opened in September and sold out within minutes.

Due to sky-high demand and the coronavirus pandemic, most retailers are only selling the console online.

That means you can’t walk into a store and grab one, unless you pre-ordered a console online.

To be in with a chance of getting your hands on a Series X/S, we suggest checking back with the following retailers on November 10.

They all offered pre-orders of the consoles – though that’s an indicator that they’ll have stock available at launch, rather than a guarantee.

Demand is expected to be very high so make sure you hit the links early to give yourself the best chance of getting one.
