EB Games’ next-gen pre-orders online only, require $200 deposit

9 Sep 2020

EB Games’ next-gen pre-orders for the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PS5 and PS5 All-Digital consoles will be online only and will require a $200 AUD deposit, Press-Start today reports.

The site doesn’t specify how it’s come across the information, but also reports that pre-orders will be limited to one console per customer. It’s unclear when pre-orders will be accepted by the retailer at present.

Microsoft confirmed the Xbox Series S console just yesterday alongside a price of $299 USD. Local Aussie pricing hasn’t been detailed as yet, but we’ll of course keep you posted. We’ll also report back when EB Games — and other local retailers — cement pre-order systems.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
