Pre-sale stock has nearly run out, but Microsoft isn’t revealing exact numbers
Those excited for the Xbox One X are certainly making their enthusiasm known, as Microsoft claims its 4K-capable console has sold through its first batch of pre-orders in record time.
Just five days after opening up the Xbox One X Project Scorpio edition for pre-order, more units of the day-one version of the upcoming console have been pre-sold in that time than any other Xbox console before it, according to an Xbox press release .
Additionally, those looking to add to those pre-order numbers may be out of luck as Microsoft claims that many countries are already sold out of their allocated Project Scorpio Edition consoles.
Thankfully, if you don’t care about a special « Project Scorpio » decal on their new console, more details regarding another batch of pre-orders for the standard edition of the Xbox One X are set to be announced next month.
For the rest of you willing to take your chances on launch day, the Xbox One X hits shelves on November 7. Even if reservations for the high-powered console are filling up fast, we don’t think finding one will be a nightmare on par with, say, Nintendo’s SNES Classic Edition.
