Where To Get An Xbox Series X And Series S In Australia [Updated]

The Xbox Series X and Series S launched mid-November, to the delight of everyone who was able to preorder them in Australia. For everyone else, the consoles are unfortunately in a strange state of limbo, with global distribution issues causing long-term stock shortages into 2021 and beyond.

The consoles are currently sold out at all physical stores, with new stock arriving at a nebulous future date. Here’s how the biggest Aussie retailers are faring with the Xbox Series X and Series S, and when you can expect new consoles to be available for preorder or purchase.

Update 19/10: Added new information about current Xbox Series X prices and stock levels at the Microsoft Store.

JB Hi-Fi

Update 5/02: We’re hearing that while you can’t get online orders of the Xbox Series X from JB Hi-Fi — although the Xbox Series S is available now — some stores have received stock from today. It’s not universal though: three major Sydney stores I called said their stock of the Xbox Series X wouldn’t arrive until next week. So call up your local store in advance. Here’s where you can find the number for your closet JB anywhere in the country.

The Gamesmen

The Gamesmen are currently sold out of the Xbox Series X, but they do have stock of the Xbox Series S.

Telstra has stock available for both the Xbox Series X and Series S. As a reminder: you will need to be a Telstra customer to take advantage of this deal. If you’re keen, you’re able to head in store to find out more.
