Xbox’s OG Green translucent Xbox Series X25 pre-order is here, and boy, it ain’t cheap
Microsoft is bundling the console with Halo: Campaign Evolved and limiting preorders to one per customer as it targets collectors and longtime fans.
- Microsoft officially opened preorders for the Xbox Series X25 Limited Edition, a translucent green console celebrating the brand's 25th anniversary priced at $899.99 with Halo: Campaign Evolved included, launching November 13, 2026.
- Inspired by the original console's aesthetic, the translucent OG Green design commemorates Xbox's 25-year history while giving owners a way to witness how the platform's technology has evolved since its 2001 launch.
- Players can purchase the Xbox X25 Special Edition Wireless Controller separately for $79.99 ahead of its October 20, 2026, release. Microsoft also partnered with Razer on translucent green peripherals including a keyboard, mouse, and earbuds.
- General preorders begin Thursday, August 27, 2026, at 7 a.m. PDT after select fans received early email access. The individually numbered units are limited, so interested shoppers must act quickly before supplies disappear.
- The $899.99 price reflects significant home console cost hikes amid an ongoing memory crisis affecting the industry. Microsoft continues Gamescom announcements including disc-to-digital features and plans to detail its next console, codenamed Project Helix, later this year.
