Those buying an Xbox Series X can get a free Starfield copy at select retailers, including Verizon and Target.
Starfield is a popular game with the title reaching over 10 million players since its global launch this month. Of course, aside from being available digitally and at retailers, Bethesda's sci-fi RPG is also available on Game Pass. Those who haven't bought the game just yet or aren't subscribed to Microsoft's game subscription service can now get a free copy of the game when purchasing an Xbox Series X. Both Target and Verizon are bundling the game for free with Microsoft's Series X console for 'only' $499.99. Interestingly enough, Target's offer isn't limited to Starfield, but various Xbox Series X titles, including Madden NFL 24, the new Mortal Kombat 1, Hogwart's Legacy, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, Star Wars: Jedi Survivor, and more.
As said, Verizon is currently offering a special limited-time Xbox Series X bundle with a free copy of Starfield for $499.99 (normally $569.98). This item is only available online, and those purchasing the bundle need to be at least 17 years old.
If you're in the market for an Xbox Series X, now might be a good time to grab one. Savings are identical at both retailers, but those looking for a different game than Starfield are better off with Target's deal.
Starfield is available worldwide now for PC and Xbox Series X|S. The game is also available via (Xbox) Game Pass. Here's what we wrote about Bethesda's 'The Elder Space Scrolls' in our launch review:
"From a technical standpoint, Starfield delivers in a rather surprising way. Gone and far are the days of broken Bethesda titles littered with all sorts of bugs, as the game has got to be the least buggy game ever made by the developer, as promised before release. While there are a few bugs, it's only natural for a game with this sort of scope, and they are minor and mostly inconsequential. We're talking about stuff like the camera not functioning properly during dialogues or the occasional enemy freezing in its tracks for a few seconds or wonky physics, so nothing that truly impacts the experience. The multiple delays, the smaller number of target platforms, and Microsoft's help allowed Bethesda to polish its title like never before."
