The Xbox Series X is back in stocks in India just before the festive sales begin. The flagship gaming console from Microsoft has been unavailable in India for a long time but various retailers are hosting limited stocks of the console up on sale. So far, the Xbox Series X is available only on Reliance Digital, while Amazon and Flipkart still show “Coming Soon” tag.
At the moment, the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S consoles are both available to purchase on Reliance Digital. Amazon is, meanwhile, only hosting the Xbox Series S console sale while Flipkart shows “Coming Soon” for both the consoles. The restock takes place just two days before Sony starts taking pre-orders for the PlayStation 5 console on October 4.
## Xbox Series X is back in stock
The Xbox Series X has suffered the most from the global chip shortage, an anomaly that is only expected to get worse in the coming days. Microsoft had managed to move a couple of unit in late 2020 and early 2021 but it stopped restocking the consoles soon after. Sony, meanwhile, had started restocking the PlayStation 5 console during the summer and has since then holding regular sales.
