Xbox Series X restocks are happening at Best Buy today
Best Buy has confirmed Xbox Series X restocks for collection-only starting at 7:30am
Xbox Series X restocks are happening at 7:30am today at Best Buy stores across the US, so don't delay if you're after one.
First announced by TechRadar's Matt Swider earlier in the week, you can now find the full location list by state and province in an update to his Xbox Series X restock article at our sister site. All US states - with the exception of Alaska - are confirmed to be carrying console units ready for collection.
It's likely to be an incredibly busy time, with long queues expected in the more populated cities. So, if you're after an Xbox Series X this morning, our best advice is to head out to a Best Buy location near you nicely and early to avoid any potential disappointment; no one wants to line up for over an hour just to leave empty-handed.
- USA Xbox Series X: Amazon | Microsoft | Best Buy | Walmart | Target | GameStop | B&H Photo | Newegg | Lenovo
- UK Xbox Series X: Amazon | Very | Argos | Microsoft | Currys | John Lewis | Box | BT
- US Xbox Series S: Amazon | Best Buy | Microsoft | B&H Photo | Target | GameStop | Newegg
- UK Xbox Series S: Box | Amazon | Currys | Microsoft | AO | Very
If you're also interested in picking up a PS5 restock, Best Buy will also have Sony's latest console in stock as well, so it's worth seeing what's available at a branch near you.
Xbox Series X restocks have been fairly quiet this week, though we always recommend keeping a close eye on Amazon, as the world's retailer has had Xbox Series X restocks come out of nowhere in the past. If you happen to be unlucky today at Best Buy, this would be where we would check next.

Xbox Series X restock: Buying advice
Aim for bundles: To avoid any upset, we generally recommend aiming for a bundle that could include some games or the best Xbox Series X accessories, like the best Xbox Series X headset. This is because the standalone console tends to be the first thing to go. Make sure that you're getting the best deal you can, but only if the system is packed in with something you actually want.
Be prepared: We recommend having your debit or credit card ready to go as you near the front of the lines, especially as it's likely to get chaotic once you're through those doors; this goes double for those of you living in the capital cities of your respective states.
Be patient: Xbox Series X restocks are fairly common, happening usually at least once per week, so if you happen to miss out today, we would advise waiting for another trusted online retailer to have a drop rather than paying over the odds to a scalper or secondary source. Remember, an Xbox Series X costs $499, don't pay more than you have to.
