The price offered by the retailer depends on the console that’s traded in. For example, if customers exchange a Nintendo Switch they’ll get the Series S and FIFA 22 for £84.99, whereas an Xbox One X carries a trade-in price of £119.99.

Xbox Series X/S at retail
Game says the traded in console must be in good working order, be of satisfactory quality and pass all security checks. It must also come with an official controller, HDMI cable, power cable and controller charging cable (if one is needed).
The copy of FIFA 22 bundled with the Xbox Series S console is the digital download version.
At $300 / £250, the Xbox Series S console is significantly cheaper than the $500 / £449 Series X, thanks to lower specs that target 1440p gaming instead of native 4K.
Series S is the smallest Xbox console to date, and is a digital-only system with no disc tray. It’s designed to provide entry to next-gen gaming at a lower price than the Xbox Series X or the PlayStation 5.
It has a 512GB custom SSD and uses the same Xbox Velocity Architecture the Series X uses for fast game loading.
Xbox boss Phil Spencer has said he expects Series S to outsell Series X over the course of the generation, and has suggested Microsoft is already working on future Xbox Series console iterations.
