Hot deal alert! The Xbox Series S has returned to its lowest ever price at Dell

In great bargain-hunting Xbox Series deal news, shoppers can pick up an Xbox Series S Gilded Hunter bundle from Dell's website for just $249.99 - this is a lowest ever price!

Not only is that a $50 saving off the console's retail price, but you're also receiving several free content packs for Fortnite, Fall Guys, and Rocket League. If you're big into the best free games, then, this is the bundle you want to shop for.

For context, Amazon US's lowest-ever price for the Xbox Series S is still a ways off this current deal, only managing a drop to $279.99 earlier this year. And that's just for the console itself. The Gilded Hunter bundle fared a little better with a low of $269.99, but this is still a good 20 bucks off Dell's offer.

What makes this deal extra special is that it gives buyers room to shop for one of the best external SSDs and still make a package for under $300 - getting just the same setup as the upcoming 1TB Xbox Series S console (due to release in September) but for $50 less than that variant would cost you.

In turn, this then gives you some extra budget to shop for the best Xbox games or an Xbox Game Pass subscription. Everybody wins.

Today's best Xbox Series S deal

It is worth noting that the Xbox Series S only has 512GB of storage out of the box. But this current discount at Dell makes deals on even the smallest external storage devices even more palatable. For example, check out this discount on the Crucial X6 500GB portable SSD, which is nearly at its lowest-ever price at Amazon
