Gamers Get First Chance to Play Xbox One X at GameStop Expo
August 20 2017 - 4:30PM
GameStop, the world’s largest gaming retailer, is giving power to
the players by offering fans the first chance to experience Xbox
One X, as part of a multimillion dollar campaign to support the new
system. Today, gamers can also pre-order their own Xbox One
X—Microsoft’s debut 4K UHD console—at GameStop locations nationwide
or online at www.gamestop.com/xboxonex.
Every year, fans from around the country travel to GameStop Expo
to check out the newest games, consoles and exclusive collectibles.
On Aug. 27, it will also be the only place they can get their hands
on Xbox One X—long before the system becomes available on Nov. 7.
Additionally, GameStop associates get plenty of time to explore the
new system at Expo, so by the time they get back to their home
store, they can talk in detail about the features that make this
console a must-have for all gamers.
“The best place to pick up Microsoft’s most anticipated Xbox
isn’t a big box,” said Bob Puzon, senior vice president of
merchandising at GameStop. “Our associates are serious gamers
themselves, making GameStop the only place players can get
unparalleled expertise on the system and its most popular
titles.”
As always, GameStop boosting affordability with special trade-in
guarantees for PowerUp Rewards members, when used toward the
purchase of an Xbox One X system. Upgraded trade-in values will be
available for these consoles from Nov. 7 – 19.
