Xbox series s does NOT have free upgrade now. In 2025, cost 40 for story and online or 20...

Preach!! It is a shame Microsoft stopped support for original Xbox One owners. They offered the adapter for free then started charging for it. $40!!! seriously? $10-20 is still to much but reasonable, $40 is outrageous to pay after spending $500 on the
new Xbox One X.

I'm not going to buy an adapter for 40 Euros!!! that should be free for all customers upgrading from One with Kinect to One S!!!

It was free at 1 point but that has now ended.

unfortunately that excuse does not hold up now the series consoles are old and the hardware does not hold value, you can easily build a pc close to the cost of a series x now with the same power or better.

@OP PSN still charges and so does Nintendo, if you want free online and cheaper games and more choice, PC is the way.

Where did you go to trade it because I would like to upgrade from the series s to the series x?

I didn't trade it, at least not straight away. I waited until a Series X became available to buy online at the standard retail price, bought it then sold my Series S to a game store for store credit.

I only lost about £40. This was back in May.

dude I complained about the same exact thing but they did give it for free I bought mine literally a day after they stoped and called and they literally told me they stop that a day ago and it will cost me 40 dollars I responded well then why did you all
advertise this console as an upgrade of the original if it can't do what the original did it's not an upgrade it's a rip I encourage everyone to not buy the one s all Microsoft has become is a cash grab company but that's it since my message will probably
be deleted
