Gaming consoles should once again be top selling items this holiday, and Microsoft is getting ready with four new 500GB Xbox One S bundles to be available at select retailers including Microsoft Stores.

In addition, you’ll find the Xbox One S Rocket League Blast-Off Bundle, the Xbox One S Ultimate Halo Bundle and the Xbox One S Starter bundle, which includes no games but three months of Xbox live Gold + Xbox Games Pass.
