It would be fair to say that Xbox has endured mixed fortunes in the last month. The Tokyo Game Show and the reveal of Forza Horizon 6 (not coming to PlayStation at launch, by the way) were followed by a price hike for Xbox Game Pass, which came just after Microsoft did its best to price itself out of the console market.
Then, as if to compound the issue, the ROG Xbox Ally and Xbox Ally X didn’t get a price until the eleventh hour, and then dropped at an eye-watering $599 and $999.
