What's in store for us in the new Xbox Series S?

Microsoft has unveiled an enhanced version of the Xbox Series S, taking a leap in digital gaming convenience and environmental responsibility. For $350, this upgrade offers gamers a massive 1TB of storage, which is twice the capacity of the previous 512GB, and is introduced in an elegant "Carbon Black" color.

The Xbox Series S, designed as a budget-friendly alternative, stands out for its lack of a disc drive and its focus on lower resolution gaming. However, the increased storage capacity is an undeniable advantage for players. Given its digital-only nature, all games must be stored within the console's internal storage. Previously, the 512GB model posed constraints, accommodating just a few AAA games. For instance, the recent game Starfield by Bethesda takes up about 130GB. With the 1TB upgrade, users can store roughly seven to eight high-tier games, alongside numerous indie games, reducing the need to frequently manage storage or invest in external drives.

Another noteworthy improvement is Microsoft's commitment to environmental sustainability. The Xbox Series S now integrates components derived from post-consumer recycled (PCR) resins, underlining the company's dedication to a more sustainable future.

While shopping, gamers might find the naming of Xbox Series S and Series X confusing due to their similarity. However, they cater to distinct user requirements. The Series S is tailored for those who prioritize value over top-tier performance, supporting resolutions up to 1440p. In contrast, the Series X boasts 4K capabilities. Despite this, the latest Series S model is bridging the gap, at least in terms of storage.
