During the Xbox Games Showcase on June 7, 2026, Microsoft announced an Xbox Series X25 Anniversary Edition console and controller, and itâs fair to say the reaction has been extremely positive.
The console and controller feature the look and feel of the original Xbox thanks to a translucent OG Green design, with subtle tributes to the console that started it all throughout.
The Xbox Series X25 Limited Edition includes 1TB of storage, and its power button lights up green. Youâll find an Xbox 25th Anniversary logo on the front and other design elements that celebrate Xbox fans and classic hardware designs.
As for the controller, it features the original ABXY colors for the face buttons, black and white bumpers that harken back to the black and white buttons on the original âDukeâ controller, and the back case and battery door are fully transparent, revealing the classic Xbox logo.
But how much does the Xbox Series X25 Anniversary Edition console and controller cost? And when can we get our hands on these stunning tributes to Microsoftâs original console? Weâve rounded up all the details you need to know and will update this article when more information is available.
Xbox Series X25 Limited Edition price
Sadly, we no longer live in a world where consoles become cheaper the longer theyâre on sale, which means the Xbox Series X25 Limited Edition price will be expensive, to say the least. Microsoft hasnât revealed exactly how much the console and controller will cost, but we can look at the recently released Xbox Series X Galaxy Black Edition to get an idea.
The Xbox Series X Galaxy Black Edition costs $799.99, but includes a 2TB SSD. The standard Xbox Series X costs $649.99 with a 1TB SSD, so a fair price would be somewhere in the middle. The Xbox Series X25 Limited Edition price could be $749.99, or even $699.99 if Microsoft wants to price it aggressively.
The price of the Xbox Series X25 Limited Edition controller should fall into the usual price range weâd expect. Limited edition controllers and unique designs usually cost between $69.99 and $89.99. Itâs likely the Xbox Series X25 Limited Edition controller price will be $89.99, which is how much the recently released Forza Horizon 6 Limited Edition controller cost.
In short, we predict the Xbox Series X25 Limited Edition console will cost $749.99, and the controller on its own will cost $89.99.
