Microsoft has announced a small price reduction for Xbox Series S in Japan, just a few days after its release. This model, like Xbox Series X, will go on sale on November 10th, but, in Japan, it will do so for 3000 yen less -approximately 29USD-. The price of Xbox Series X remains as planned, 49,980 yen. With this new price, the Xbox Series S is just 10,000 yen below the PS5 Digital Edition, which in Japan costs 39,980 yen.
This may be a strategy for Xbox Series S to better position itself in the Japanese market, and thus compete in the home market of the rival console
