Will the Xbox Series X 25th Anniversary Edition price match the PS5 Pro?

Remember when consoles were cheap? Well, those days might be getting further and further away. According to a new rumor from DealLabs Magazine, the upcoming 25th Anniversary Xbox Series X could have a price tag comparable to the PS5 Pro. And honestly, I'm not even that surprised.

Let's break it down. According to the leak, this special edition console is set to be priced the same as Sony's premium PS5 Pro. That's a bold move, but considering how much hype surrounds anniversary editions, it kind of makes sense. Collectors and hardcore fans are always willing to pay extra for something unique.

But here's the thing: the price isn't the only detail that leaked. The report also hints at a specific release date, but for now that's being kept secret. If the rumor is true, this could be one of the most expensive Xbox consoles ever made.

Now you might be thinking, "Why would I pay that much money?" For one thing, this is a 25th Anniversary Edition. That's an event that happens once every 25 years. On top of that, these special editions often come with exclusive designs, extra goodies, and nostalgia that's hard to put a price on.

But let's think realistically. If the price matches the PS5 Pro, Microsoft will be making a statement. They're positioning this not as just a console, but as a premium product. And since the PS5 Pro has already set a high bar, it's clear that competition in the high-end console market is heating up.

Of course, all of this is still a rumor. DealLabs has been around before, but we'll have to wait for official confirmation from Microsoft. Until then, we can only speculate and dream about what this special edition will look like.

So what do you think? Would you drop that kind of cash on an anniversary Xbox, or is it too much? Let us know in the comments below!
