Update: Best Buy has sold out of Xbox units; see the Xbox Series X Restock Tracker for updates on Xbox Series X restocks.

After several days of silence, the Xbox Series X restock has arrived at Best Buy; the Xbox Series X is now in stock for $499.99. Unfortunately, the Xbox Series S is not currently available.

This is the first confirmed restock of the Xbox Series X from Best Buy in recent weeks. It also comes minutes after Best Buy restocked the PS5.

As with most retailers, pre-setting up a Best Buy account is a top priority. Make sure your payment details, address, and other information are saved in advance to save valuable time at checkout.

It should also be noted that Best Buy does not currently offer delivery of Xbox consoles. The order process is done online, but you must choose to pick up your console in-store. Therefore, if there is no Best Buy near you or you are unable to visit your local store, Best Buy may not be your Xbox retailer.

When restocking takes place, refresh the product page until you see either a yellow "Add to Cart" button or a gray "Please Wait" button. If the latter appears, do not refresh and wait for the button to change to a yellow "Add to Cart" button.

Once you are able to add the item to your cart, you may see a message that the Xbox Series X is no longer in stock. If so, you will need to change to a location where it is in stock. Open a new page and repeat the process above until the "Add to Cart" button reappears.

Best Buy, like other retailers, is releasing Xbox Series X inventory on a rolling basis, so even if the restock shows as sold out on their site, you may have another chance to get your Xbox. Investing time in this process may pay off, as others may give up and lose patience.

Retailers will also ask for the code provided during the purchase process. Always opt for text, as it is sent almost instantly; with email, the code may take longer to arrive or get caught in spam filters.
