Microsoft has announced a summer sale for the Xbox One 500GB console, which will run as long as "supplies last." All Xbox One 500GB consoles are now $249.
The new price represents a $100 discount, and at GameStop the markdown also applies to the 1TB Xbox One, bringing the price down to $300. The last time we saw a major price drop for the Xbox One was back in March, with the console marked down to $300 during Microsoft's Spring Sale.
The price drop follows on from recent reports that the PlayStation 4 was again the top-selling console in the US for the month of June, claiming the spot for the third month in a row. Overall, hardware sales in the US dropped a dramatic 42 percent year-over-year, from $313.1 million last June to $181.5 million this year.
