In Australia, Xbox preorders open on Monday, September 22 at 8 AM AEST / 6 PM ET (Sunday) at the Microsoft Store, JB Hifi, EB Games, Telstra, Harvey Norman, and other retailers. In New Zealand, it’ll be 8 AM NZST / 4 PM ET at the Microsoft Store, JB HiFi, EB Games, Spark, and other retailers. If you’re planning to preorder one of the consoles, you must act immediately after they become available, because supplies are limited, and these consoles are expected to sell out quickly. You may also be able to preorder in person, but you’ll need to contact your retailer for specific details. In addition, Microsoft also has the Xbox All Access program, which allows you to get the Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S and Game Pass Ultimate for monthly payments of $35 and $25 respectively with no upfront cost.
