The Xbox Series X is a true gaming powerhouse, featuring super speedy processing power, cutting-edge visuals and neat features like Quick Resume, which lets players switch between games in an instant, picking up exactly where they left off. If you’ve been thinking of grabbing an Xbox Series X console, then there’s arguably never been a better time, as Argos gives customers the chance to purchase a console with an essential freebie. For a limited time only, Argos shoppers can get a free Xbox controller with the purchase of a Series X. This means you’ll have two controllers to play around with, which is perfect for local multiplayer. Likewise, with Xbox controllers requiring batteries, you’ll always have a spare should one run out of juice. The Argos website is showing that the console deal is “in demand” and “selling fast”, so you may need to hurry in order to avoid missing out on this deal.

Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription service provides fantastic value for money, giving users access to hundreds of games for a monthly fee.
This includes brand new first-party Xbox games on the day of launch. This includes games like Gears of War, Forza Horizon, Halo and even Bethesda’s Starfield.
Subscribers can also play a ton of triple-A third-party games from the likes of Ubisoft and Electronic Arts, not to mention a wide variety of indie gems.
Just last week Microsoft added the excellent Star Wars Jedi Survivor to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
Taking place five years after its predecessor, Jedi Survivor sees Cal Kestis once again take on the Empire.
“This narratively driven, single-player title picks up 5 years after the events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and follows Cal’s increasingly desperate fight as the galaxy descends further into darkness,” reads the official description.
“Pushed to the edges of the galaxy by the Empire, Cal will find himself surrounded by threats new and familiar.”
Microsoft has also announced the next wave of games coming to Xbox Game Pass in May.
This includes Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, Little Kitty, Big City, Kona II: Brume and Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition.
That’s on top of critically-acclaimed roguelike game Have a Nice Death, which joined the service earlier this week.
“In this darkly charming 2D action roguelike, play as an overworked Death, whose employees have run rampant, completely throwing off the balance of souls – and his vacation plans,” reads the official description.
“Grab your trusty scythe and show your employees who’s boss.”
