Xbox All Access Australian pre-orders “soon opening,” says Telstra

Xbox All Access Australian pre-orders will be opening “soon” according to Telstra, which has also asserted that it holds exclusive rights to the financing program locally.

“But wait: there’s more,” a press release from Telstra reads. “Stay tuned early next week for an announcement about an opportunity to jump the pre-order queue and score yourself an Xbox Series X and 24 months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, just by using the problem-solving and puzzle-hunting skills you’ve picked up as a gamer. It’s like playing Phoenix Wright IRL.”

With Xbox All Access in Australia, an Xbox Series S console will cost $33 AUD/month over 24 months (comapred to $499 AUD outright), and an Xbox Series X console will cost $46 AUD/month over 24 months (compared to $749 outright).

Related: By our calculations, you’ll actually save money on either console using Xbox All Access.

We’ll let you know when pre-orders go live, of course, but you can also keep an eye out on Telstra’s Xbox All Access portal for updates.

Regular pre-orders of the Xbox Series S and Series X go live on 22 September, and the consoles themselves will be available from 10 November.

Steve Wright

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.
