Xbox Series X/S Console Prices Increase Trump's New Tariff Accuracy

JAKARTA - Starting May 1, Microsoft has raised prices for all its Xbox Series X/S console devices by more than 20 percent, caused by the global economy.

Global trade is experiencing uncertainty after US President Donald Trump announced a new high-rate policy to many countries, especially China.

So, the price of the Xbox Series X/S controller now is:

In Europe, the S Series price will rise from 299.99 euros (Rp5.6 million) to 349.99 euros Rp6.5 million), an increase of 17 percent. In Australia, Series S is sold from a price of 549 Australian dollars (Rp5.8 million) and Series X at a price of 849 Australian dollars (Rp8.9 million).

"We understand that this change is challenging, and these changes are made with careful consideration given market conditions and increased development costs," the company said on its website.
