There are tons of ways to enjoy Xbox games these days, including next-gen consoles, previous-gen systems and powerful PC rigs. But no matter how you like to play, there are tons of other accessories out there that can take your setup to the next level. And whether you’re looking for a headset to strategize with your teammates, or an external hard drive to bump up your console’s storage, we’ve rounded up some of the best Xbox gear you can snag on sale right now below.
These deals include discounts on top-rated headsets, controllers, gaming subscriptions and much more. And if you’re looking to get your hands on a next-gen Xbox, there’s a bundle available that includes the Xbox Series S and 1TB of expandable storage right now. We’ll continue to update this page as offers come and go, so be sure to check back often for the best prices available. And if you’re a PlayStation gamer, be sure to check out our roundup for the best deals on PlayStation gaming gear as well.
If you’re in the market for a next-gen console, this discounted Xbox Series S and 1TB Seagate Storage Expansion card bundle is a decent option for those who enjoy having a large game library. The Series S is the more affordable of Microsoft’s two new consoles and doesn’t have a physical disk drive, but can still run all the same games as the pricier Series X. But having that additional terabyte of storage could certainly come in handy, so this is a decent option for gamers who don’t want to have to pick and choose which games to keep on your console.
Microsoft officially discontinued the Xbox One back in 2020, so it’s pretty difficult (and expensive) to find new consoles. But if you’re hoping to grab one of these previous-gen Xboxes, there are still quite a few refurbished models floating around out there at a good price. And while they won’t be able to handle every next-gen game, quite a few new titles are still playable, including recent hits like Elden Ring. This model features 500GB of storage, and is equipped with a disk drive and backwards compatibility, making it a great pick if you’re big on retro games. Plus, it comes with the original wireless controller, which saves you another $60. Though for casual gamers looking for the easiest and most accessible option, you’re probably better off opting for the Xbox Series S.
Note: True, calling this a deal is probably a stretch as there’s no straightforward discount, but it is the best price you’ll find out there on a full-size Xbox console with a disk drive.
Xbox users who subscribe to Game Pass Ultimate now have access to Microsoft’s cloud gaming beta, which allows you to stream games from anywhere on a variety of devices — including smartphones. This Razer Kishi is a compact controller that holds your phone in the middle so you can enjoy your favorite console games while you’re on the go. It’s designed to be universally compatible with Android phones with a USB-C connector, and has a similar layout to the Nintendo Switch. There is also an iPhone version that you can snag on sale for $51.
If you’re looking for an extra controller to have on hand, this wired Power A model is one of the best options out there right now. It’s highly affordable at less than $30, and we named it the best Xbox controller for those who are just after the basics. It features a standard button layout, a detachable USB cable, and features two mappable buttons for custom controls.
If you’re a hardcore gamer, you may want to take advantage of this rare deal on the Elite Series 2 wireless controller. It allows you to adjust thumbstick tension and swap components like the D-pad and paddles to match your play style. Plus you can remap the buttons and create up to three custom profiles so you can easily switch between games or players.
The SteelSeries Arctis 9X is one of our favorite high-end Xbox headsets on the market right now. It features wireless connectivity and is compatible with both the next-gen Xbox Series X and Series S, as well as the previous-gen Xbox One. It’s equipped with a retractable microphone with noise-canceling capabilities to filter out background noise, and has a battery life of up to 20 hours on a single charge.
If you don’t want to spend over $100 on a headset, the Hyper X Cloud II is an excellent budget-friendly pair. It’s a wired over-ear headset that’s equipped with 53mm drivers and offers 7.1 virtual surround sound, passive noise cancellation and a detachable noise-canceling microphone. It lists for $100, but right now it’s marked down by 40%, bringing the price to just $60.
Games just keep getting bigger, and while I’m not complaining, it does mean that your console’s storage can fill up pretty quickly. Seagate makes portable hard drives that are specifically designed to expand your Xbox’s storage so you can spend less time redownloading and more time gaming. This 2TB model uses a USB 3.2 interface, and is compatible with the Xbox Series X and S, as well as all versions of the Xbox One.
For next-gen users, Seagate also makes an expansion card that plugs directly into the back of your Series X or S console for seamless gameplay. It uses the same Velocity architecture found on Xbox consoles, so it boasts the fastest load times of any external game drive out there right now, with data transfer speeds of up to 2,400 MB/s. It’s roughly twice as expensive as the portable drive above, but it is the fastest and most convenient way to expand your Xbox storage at the moment.
A Game Pass Ultimate subscription is one of the best ways to get the most out of your Xbox. It includes an Xbox Live Gold membership, which allows you to play games online, and also gives you access to a massive library of Xbox titles that you can download and play for free at any time. An Ultimate membership typically costs $15 per month, but this three-month deal from CDKeys drops that down to just under $10.
