Many PlayStation gamers were confused by Sony's pre-order message about PlayStation 5, something that led to people missing out and complaining about it on social media. Microsoft took the opportunity to comment on Twitter, writing: "don't worry - we'll let you know the exact time pre-orders start for you soon."
And they kept that promise. Less than 24-hours later, the platform holder has now updated Xbox Wire with information on when and where you can pre-order your Xbox Series S and X. It's all beginning on September 22, 8 AM BST / 9 AM CEST and there is quite the list on participating retailers. If you are planning to pre-order in or from the UK, here are your options:
"Microsoft Store, GAME, Amazon, Dixons, Currys PC World, Argos, John Lewis, Smyths Toys, and other participating retailers."
And this is what applies to the rest of Europe:
"Microsoft Store, Amazon, MediaMarkt, GameStop, FNAC, Elkjøp/Elgiganten, and other participating retailers."
