GameStop will have Xbox Series X restock in stores nationwide today (June 16). The retailer confirmed the event on the GameStop Twitter account over the weekend. Both the Xbox Series X and Series S will be in stock.
Console restocks have mostly occurred online. On a few occasions, gamers might have had to pick up their console in-store, but the actual purchasing of the console happened online. So this will be the first in-store-only Xbox Series X drop we've seen. It's a major announcement just as Prime Day deals start to ramp up.
