Westcon is getting ready for the Xbox’s local availability on 23 September, and says resellers can start placing their orders soon.
The recommended retail price of the product in South Africa will start from R6299.99, heading upwards to R7999.99 for consoles bundled with the Kinect.
“At Westcon we have seen brilliant success for the previous generations of the Xbox, success we believe will continue with the launch of the Xbox One,” says Heinz Stephan, business unit director at Westcon. “Our reseller partners will continue to be able to source the product from us timeously and with all of the associated support they need to promote and take the device to market.”
The gaming launch for Xbox One in South Africa will include AAA titles like Forza Horizon 2 and Halo: The Master Chief Collection that comes with the highly anticipated Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer beta.
“So now that the launch date for Xbox One in South Africa is officially set for 23 September 2014, gamers can rest easy knowing that Westcon and its vendor partners have everything they need,” says Stephan.
Reseller partners and customers can contact the company to find out when they can place their orders.
