Gamestop xbox series x halo infinite limited edition bundle

The limited edition Halo Infinite Xbox Series X console and Elite Series 2 controller have been impossible to get since their original announcment. Fortunately for Pro Members at GameStop, they will have a couple chances this week to nab these exclusive Halo Infinite items.

During Halo Infinite's appearance at Gamescom 2021, 343 Industries and Xbox revealed a specialty line of products to celebrate Halo's 20th Anniversary. Some of the announced items include a beautiful Halo Infinite Xbox Series X console that is mostly black and gray with gold highlights and a speckled top, and a Master Chief-themed Xbox Elite Series 2 controller based off the legendary Spartan's armor. Unfortunately, as has been the case with most console acquisitions in the past year, these items sold out almost immediately and have yet to see a major restock anywhere. Desperate fans can find these items through other online retailers but for inordinate prices, in some cases being thousands of dollars.

GameStop will be restocking the Halo Infinite Xbox Series X and Elite 2 controller at varying times this week. Pro Members at Gamestop have begun receiving notices about the restock happening throughout the week, as these they will have early access to these items. The first of these restocks is on Tuesday, October 12 at 10:00 am CST, where fans will have an attempt at snagging the coveted Halo Infinite Xbox Series X console. Then on Wednesday, October 13, at 10:00 am CST, the limited-edition Halo Infinite Xbox Elite Series 2 controller will go on sale. Presumably these items will be listed at the prices that they were originally retailed for, the console being $549 and the controller being $199.

The final restock known as the "Halo Super Fan Bundle" will be happening on Thursday, October 14, at 10:00am CST. In this bundle, fans will get both the limited edition Halo Infinite Xbox Series X console and Elite Series 2 controller, as well as the Kaira Pro Halo Wireless Headset, themed similarly to the controller. With the headset being listed individually at $169, tentative buyers should expect to pay quite handsomely for this bundle, probably pretty close to the $1,000 mark.

These restocks are similar to other Pro Member-exclusive restocks GameStop has done previously for the PS5 and Xbox Series X, though not quite as annoying as those ones. With those restocks, GameStop typically bundles the console with games, giftcards, and other accessories, in turn making buyers pay more than they would for just the console itself. This type of practice is evident in the Halo Super Fan Bundle, where rather than just listing the items again separately, if buyers miss out on Tuesday and Wednesday, they will have to go all in with the bundle on Thursday. Hopefully though, this is an opportunity many people can take advantage of.

Halo Infinite releases on December 8 for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.

GameStop has announced plans to reopen Halo Infinite Xbox Series X console preorders this week, plus the accompanying Halo Infinite Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. The scheduled release brings another opportunity to pick up Microsoft's best Xbox console on the market, reworked with a limited-edition black and gold design, taking cues from its next installment of the shooter. The Halo Infinite controller draws a metallic green finish, inspired by franchise icon Master Chief.

The restock launches exclusively to GameStop PowerUp Rewards Pro members, with three releases scheduled over consecutive days. Orders for the Halo Infinite Xbox Series X console bundle open at 11 a.m. ET / 8 a.m. PT on Oct. 12, while the themed Xbox Elite Controller Series 2 follows at the same time on Oct. 13.

GameStop also launches a "Halo Super Fan Bundle," an all-inclusive package containing Halo Infinite Xbox Series X, Elite controller, and Razer Kaira Pro headset at 11 a.m. ET / 8 a.m. PT on Oct. 14.

GameStop has promised early access to members with PowerUp Rewards Pro, its annual subscription, available from $14.99 per year. This paid membership is one of the better opportunities to snag in-demand hardware, limiting access to just a subset of customers.

Xbox Series X – Halo Infinite Limited Edition Bundle

Microsoft honors two decades of Xbox and Halo with a limited-edition Halo Infinite black and gold design of its flagship Xbox Series X console. While the stock is limited, you can find the latest links below.

GameStop PowerUp Rewards Pro also brings various benefits to regular customers, including bonus reward points, monthly credit, and access to Game Informer. However, early access to the latest consoles, graphics cards, and other in-demand products helps justify the upfront cost to avoid high resell prices.

The Halo Infinite Xbox Series X bundle launches on Nov. 15, ahead of Halo Infinite's slated Dec. 8 release date. The star-speckled device features metallic grey and gold highlights, drawing inspiration from the game's sci-fi world, coupled with a blue-tinted fan and custom sounds. The bundle includes the console, an exclusive controller, and one copy of Halo Infinite, priced at $550 in the U.S.

Nov. 15 also sees the launch of the Xbox Elite Controller Series 2, reinvented around the protagonist, Master Chief. Green and black paneling, custom decals, and a blue-tinted LED provide a signature Halo Infinite-inspired look. It also retains the same functionality as other Series 2 gamepads, including interchangeable components, adjustable thumbsticks and triggers, plus an overall premium in-hand feel.
