Xbox Series X resupply news will be rare, but if you follow our Xbox Restocks Twitter Tracker Matt Swider – and turn on alert notifications for the upcoming Xbox Series X refueling – You will know when and where to find the Microsoft console. Most recently, we found a Walmart Xbox restock, with thousands of people finding a next-gen console through our alerts (there was a PS5 restock that day as well). While we saw Xbox inventory stay in stock longer in the summer at stores like Best Buy, Walmart, and even Microsoft’s website, Target has local dips from time to time. Of all the stores in the US, Best Buy is behind; we’re tracking it for next week, while Walmart just happened.
► When? Follow our Xbox Series X resupply Twitter tracker Matt Swider and enable live replenishment news notifications. It’s the fastest way to get Xbox Resupply Updates.
► Warning: do not buy from other Twitter users. They are all scams. Buy only in the US stores that Matt warns you about. No one will legitimately sell Xbox Series X for just $ 550.
► Why trust TechRadar? We didn’t point you to a bunch of US retailer links, which are always dead ends. Others do that, not us. Matt Swider will send you an automatic notification when there is Xbox actual stock through their monitoring efforts 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Update: Last week, we saw both Walmart and the official Microsoft Xbox Store offering the console for a few minutes, which is more than normal, and hundreds of our fans were able to purchase the Microsoft console for its MSRP of $ 499.

Secret availability of Xbox Series X from Microsoft Store
Next Xbox Series X restock date at Microsoft: Expired, usually Sunday or ThursdayMicrosoft Xbox Series X Last Restock Date: Thursday, July 29 at 6:05 pm EDTMicrosoft has diverted Xbox console stock to its Xbox Insiders programBeta testers (of new dashboards) get access to purchase a consoleRequires turning on your Xbox One console
Microsoft has set its resupply date on Thursdays, although it has also done so on Sunday night at 11:59 pm earlier. While it had a restock for a few minutes (maybe three full minutes) on Thursday, July 29 at 6:05 p.m. EDT, it has been diverting its Xbox stock from its own retail store to a new pilot program.
The Xbox Insiders Xbox Series X update plan, first discovered by Bradon Hofer, is actually a great incentive for people who want to beta test the dashboard tweaks and other system updates that Microsoft is developing for their consoles. And if you’re stuck testing things on an old Xbox One and want to upgrade to the new Xbox Series X, you really should be first in line.
Note: You will need to turn on your old Xbox One console to log into this particular Xbox Insiders menu. You can access it online, nor can you find the menu on an Xbox Series X. This prevents Xbox Series X owners from requesting a second console from their new system.

Target Xbox Series X Replenishment – Daily Online Locally
Target Xbox restocking is online locally now almost every morningOnly a few zip codes have the Xbox Series X for sale, and only a few consoles on thatThis is very different from the nationwide Xbox Series X restocks before.
Every weekday morning and sometimes Saturday Target you have the Xbox Series X in stock at random stores to buy online (no, you can’t buy the Xbox from stores in the US right now). The problem is that it is difficult to issue Twitter alerts when it is generally about select stores in a city and there are only five consoles as part of the Xbox restock.
Target has gone from a nationwide restock date to offering the Xbox Series X locally (again, just to buy online and pick up in stores) and has the Xbox consoles for sale as they arrive every morning.

Xbox All-Access is often silent refueling
Walmart and GameStop had Xbox Series X in stock through All Access for weeks and no one noticedPay-as-you-go program hooks you into a 24-month contract
Stores like Walmart and GameStop often restock the Xbox Series X through the Xbox All Access Bundle, which works much like a smartphone plan. You pay for the console over time, but you’re also enrolled in Xbox Game Pass Ultimate (which is actually something you should consider buying alongside an Xbox anyway).
After 24 months, you will save a couple of dollars with this Xbox Series X plan, but you will be forced to pay it back for two years.

Xbox Series X restocking news is still a mixed bag. The console is available when there is a restock, but retailers in the US haven’t put the new Xbox on sale, except for some restock dates in late June and the first half of July. The demand has fallen, but also the supply. At first, it can be difficult to buy Xbox Series X once things stabilize again (as more demand builds up), but as soon as those pent-up needs are met, it will simply stay in stock again, according to our analysis.
Amazon Xbox Series X Restocking
Believe it or not, Amazon hasn’t had an Xbox Series X restock since Prime Day in late June. That means the online retailer must also put the Xbox up for sale, and that many of its customers will clamor for the opportunity to buy it because of all the pent-up demand. It’s going to be chaotic to say the least.
One thing Amazon has been doing overseas with restocking is limited sales to Prime customers. This would overcome the many problems that Amazon (and also Walmart) has with resellers obtaining all the consoles with the use of bots. So far, Prime-exclusive resupply events haven’t made it to the US.

With the release of the Halo Infinite beta, there will be growing demand for Xbox Series X, and we’re tracking all major US retailers live and updating our exclusive replenishment report every step of the way.
