Microsoft's latest price increase comes one month after rival Sony announced a $50 across-the-board increase on PlayStation 5 consoles in the U.S. Nintendo made a similar move in August, raising the price of original Switch consoles and Joy-Con 2 controllers for Switch 2.

An Xbox support page notes the upcoming price increase happening on Oct. 3, as first reported by Windows Central on Friday. Console costs will jump $20 to $70, depending on the version.

As Costco's Xbox console clearout goes global, a company spokesperson comments on the decision to pull Microsoft's gaming hardware from store shelves.

The Xbox-branded Asus ROG Ally releases October 16 with two different editions priced at $600/$1,000.
