Best Buy has a new bundle that comes with <strong>an Xbox Series X<\/strong>, as well as <strong>Forza Horizon 6<\/strong> and the <strong>limited-edition Forza Horizon 6 Xbox Wireless Controller, <\/strong>all for $659.97<strong>. That saves you $150 off MSRP.<\/strong> Considering the across-the-board console price hikes in recent years, that\u2019s a killer discount, and the best Xbox deal we\u2019ve seen in a while.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\" data-toc-title=\"Get the bundle\">Get the Xbox Series X Forza Horizon 6 Bundle<\/h2>\n<div id=\"238362\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\"><span data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"238362\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Xbox Series X + Forza Horizon 6 + Forza Controller\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/imdbnews.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/this-forza-horizon-6-bundle-is-the-best-xbox-series-x-deal-around-right-now.jpg\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"product-badge jsx-3056253127 jsx-1233459104\">\n<p>Out May 20<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">Xbox Series X + Forza Horizon 6 + Forza Controller<\/h3>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Here\u2019s a breakdown of the pricing for the individual items in the bundle:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"list jsx-4224303756\" data-cy=\"list\">\n<li>Xbox Series X: $649.99<\/li>\n<li>Forza Horizon 6: $69.99<\/li>\n<li>Forza Xbox Controller: $89.99<\/li>\n<li><strong>Total: $809.07<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">So, effectively, you\u2019re getting all three items for just $10 more than you\u2019d normally pay for the console alone. And while I haven\u2019t played Forza Horizon 6 since it\u2019s not out yet, I\u2019ve played most of the previous installments and they\u2019re all phenomenal. Forza Horizon is my favorite racing game series by far. And I love the \u201890s callback vibes of that Forza Horizon 6 Xbox controller. It looks terrific, and you can even get a matching charging dock and headset if you want to.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">While the Xbox Series X is trailing PS5 considerably in console sales, I have both devices and I actually prefer playing games on Xbox Series X whenever possible. I like the interface better. I like the Quick Resume feature. I like how the backwards compatibility goes all the way back to the original Xbox (for select games, anyway). I like how you automatically get the Series X upgrade for free for most games. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">There\u2019s a new head of Xbox, Asha Sharma, and she\u2019s hit the ground running. She\u2019s already floating new ideas for the future of the platform, and has even cut the price of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. It\u2019s now $7 cheaper per month, and all you lose is day-one access to future Call of Duty games. Plus, GTA 6 will only be available on consoles at launch, and you&#8217;ll be able to play it on Xbox Series X this November.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">I don&#8217;t know about you, but I&#8217;ve felt pretty disheartened seeing the console price increases this generation. This deal is sort of like a time machine to the before time, before the tariffs, before the RAM shortage, to a time when your dollar went further when buying a game console. A deal like this is good to see.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em>Chris Reed is a commerce editor and deals expert for IGN.
