10 Reasons Xbox Series X Has ALREADY Won The Next Generation War Over PS5

With the Series S coming in at £249.99 - over £100 cheaper than Sony's own digital only counterpart - it costs less for gamers to step into next gen at the ground level.

Though the mutual higher end models both will cost you £449.99, the Series S offers affordability that Sony is nowhere near matching. It may seem obvious, but this is the key to winning a generation: shifting more consoles than the other runners in the race.

With such a gulf in the prices between their cheapest models, the Xbox has a clear and decisive advantage, appealing to the thrifty, first time buyers, and needless to say cash strapped students as well. Considering the current circumstances, the prospect of having next gen gaming at a price lower than the usual starting price of machines for the last few years is going to be difficult to ignore for a large percentage of gamers.

The cheaper iterations of both consoles will certainly entice some, but for those wanting the full powered next gen experience, that both Series X and PS5 are £449.99 would seem to make for a difficult decision.

However, the power and services of the Series X certainly give it the advantage when it comes to value for money.
