Xbox Scarlett for Holidays 2020; Microsoft Launches Console Replacement Program
In several selected countries, Microsoft started offering an installment plan called Xbox All Access, designed for new Xbox One s, with the possibility of free hardware replacement on the next-generation console. Its and conditions confirm that Xbox Scarlett will debut in stores at the end of 2020.
Microsoft has once again started offering PlayStation 5 should also be available in stores at the same time.
Scarlett is the code name of the Xbox One successor.
Xbox All Access is available in three different versions. They all provide us with a two-year Xbox Game Ultimate (Xbox LIVE Gold Xbox Game ) subscription but differ in the console model included in the set - Xbox One X, Xbox One S or Xbox One S All-Digital (Xbox without an optical drive). After g a two-year agreement we have to pay monthly installments, which in Great Britain amount to 24.99 GBP ($30.99) - Xbox One X option, 19.99 GBP ($22.99) - Xbox One S option or 17.99 GBP ($19.99) - Xbox One S All-Digital option. After the release of Xbox Scarlett, Xbox All Access owners will have the opportunity to exchange their Xbox One for a next-gen console free of charge. In this case, there are a few restrictions. Firstly, they will have to pay their existing bills regularly (for the first 12 months for the most expensive version and 18 months for the remaining ones) and sign a new two-year contract with the operator. Those who have chosen the cheapest installment option will also be forced to pay a one-time fee of 15 GBP.
In Europe, the programme is likely to be available only in the UK, which is traditionally the continent's largest market for Microsoft consoles.
It is worth noting that the operator of the program is not Microsoft, but an external banking company. In Europe, Xbox All Access is likely to be available only in the UK. In the UK we will order it in selected store chains (Game and Smyths Toys). Customers must, of course, also be able to prove their creditworthiness.
