Xbox Series X, price unveiled by Pringles? It appears to be tall

Xbox Series X could have a high price as feared by many, according to a possible leak derived from none other than Pringles, the famous chips protagonists of a promotional initiative linked to Microsoft and the new console in South Africa.

Yes speaks of over 600 euros, or the maximum threshold that has been occurring for some time talking about the prices of the next gen but which hopefully will not always be reached by PS5 or Xbox Series X, mindful, however, of the bumpy start of PS3 launched at this price in Europe .

However, it is still a rumor and the information comes through the wrong way: the price is deducted from the prize money made available in a new competition linked to Pringles in South Africa, as reported by WCCFTech.

There are 46 Xbox Series X consoles up for grabs for a total value of R621,000 in local currency: dividing the value by the number of consoles gives a price of 13500 for each, corresponding to ol three 600 euros, a very high figure.

Obviously the question is very dubious, above all because it is not certain that the simple subdivision of the prize pool value by the number of consoles can refer to the precise price of each Xbox Series X , so we take it all only as a speculation on the basis of not very solid evidence and waiting for certain information from Microsoft. Also, as Twitter user reported below, South Africa normally has prices higher than the market standard in other countries when it comes to tech items, so a direct price conversion makes little sense.
