Despite it already being more than a year since the initial launch of Microsoft's latest gaming console, the Xbox Series X has remained incredibly difficult to purchase with stock going out as soon as they hit the shelves. 

Those looking to get their hands on the console should keep an eye out because a new batch of Xbox Series X restock is expected to arrive on Feb. 28 all the way to Mar. 6.

Why is There an Xbox Series X Shortage?

The shortage of Xbox Series X restocks has been due to the lack of supply, which has been attributed to the ongoing global chip shortage. Due to the limited supply, only a handful of restocks are released every once in a while. These restocks have been stretched out to different online retailers.

Per a tweet by Xbox Series X Stock Alerts, a new batch is expected to come out this Feb. 28 to Mar. 6. In addition to that, the new stock is expected to hit different online retailers including Walmart, GameStop, Amazon, Target, and more.
