Since both Xbox One and PS4 launched in November 2013, the main sticking point between the two consoles has been the price difference. However the Xbox One is getting closer to matching Sony’s console in price. Yesterday Microsoft revealed the Xbox One Titanfall bundle which would be available for £399.99. The bundle includes the console, wireless controller, Kinect sensor, 1 month Xbox Live Gold and a copy of upcoming shooter Titanfall.

If the bundle seemed like a good deal and signaled the start of Xbox One’s price reduction, GameStop has taken it a step further by knocking off an extra £30 from the bundle, making it available to purchase for just £369. Not only is this good news for those who will be purchasing from GameStop, but it also means it is likely that other retailers may follow suit, helping bring down the cost even further.

However the price for a standard Xbox One package from GameStop still costs £409.97, considerably more than the Titanfall bundle. That price however will be reduced to at least £399.99. Along with revealing the Titanfall bundle yesterday, Microsoft also announced that it is to permanently reduce the price of Xbox One this Friday, reducing the console from £429.99 to £399.99.

Due to the Titanfall bundle being great value for money, especially when compared to the standard bundle, it remains unclear if this is a one-off promotion in the lead up to Titanfall or if this will also see GameStop reducing the price of the standard Xbox One bundle once the game launches in March.

Either way, if your looking at buying an Xbox One and want to grab Titanfall, now is a good time to do so.
