Announced this week as a new holiday offering, the Xbox Series S starter bundle comes with the console, its Xbox wireless controller, and a three-month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription. (That unlocks access to the Xbox Game Pass library of over 100 titles as well as online multiplayer, day one releases, exclusive discounts, and a free EA Play membership.) It's a $349.98 combined value, but you'll pay just $299.99, or the going price of the Series S itself. Preorders are available at Amazon, Best Buy, and in the Microsoft Store ahead of its official release on Tuesday, Oct. 31.
