Prior story:The Xbox Series X restock at GameStop in the last 24 hours sold out, but it wasn’t alone – the online All-Access bundle was flanked by a Target Xbox restock earlier in the morning, and a Costco restock late in the day. Newegg Shuffle also had a bundle one up for grabs.

Xbox Series X restock news: GameStop, Target
We saw the Xbox Serie X restock at Target on Wednesday morning, and Matt Swider was there with an alert as soon as we saw the Xbox in stock. Hundreds of people were able to get the Xbox Series X for MSRP. There’s really no reason to pay a higher price for the Xbox Series X if you’re paying attention to the alerts.
There was also an Xbox Series X restock at GameStop at 2pm EDT / 1pm CT / 1pm MDT / 11am PDT. GameStop sent out an email ahead of time to its PowerUp Rewards Pro members and restricted it to those members – at least at first. They get early access, which is something GameStop is touting to sell more memberships.
The other restriction for people was that this was for the Xbox All-Access bundle, which means you’re forced to pay for the Series X console over time (a $499 value) plus the cost ofXbox Game PassUltimate ($14.99 a month value). The Xbox Series X All-Access bundle price comes out to be $34.99 a month for 24 months.
Some people prefer to pay for the console by itself or buy it outright, but that’s not what was offered yesterday at GameStop online (and it wasn’t anin-store GameStop Xbox restocklike last week, which we exclusively reported on from line). You also need to go through a credit check, like you would when signing up for a new smartphone plan. That always a sticking point for some customers who get rejected.
With those caveats stated, this was a fairly straightforward GameStop Xbox Series X restock that lasted a long time simply because the retailer included many restrictions (withMicrosoft’s All-Access bundle and PowerUp Rewards Pro members getting early access). It’s better than waiting on theBest Buy restockthat got delayed.
