Xbox Series X Cyber Monday restock: Adorama, Walmart, and Meijer inventory
The Series X is in short supply, but here's where you might get lucky.
It's Cyber Monday, and that means major markdowns on games and other tech across many of the internet's most popular retailers. Unfortunately, there won't be any discounts on the recently released Xbox Series X but many stores have refreshed their next-gen consoles stock just in time for the upcoming holiday shopping spree.
Much like every past console launch, Microsoft's latest gaming system has been in short supply. Microsoft executive Liz Hamren acknowledged that "not everyone was able to get an Xbox Series X immediately," in a November 13 statement. However, she reassured customers that the company was "working tirelessly" to get more out the door as soon as possible.
