After almost a year since its unveiling at 2019’s Game Awards,\u00a0the\u00a0Xbox Series X\u00a0<\/strong>is finally out today and is already set up in some peoples’ homes. Unfortunately, the console’s release has been anything but smooth. There was already chaos surrounding Xbox Series X pre-orders<\/a>, meaning many prospective owners had to miss out on getting one on day one, but even those who did snag a pre-order may not get theirs today.<\/p>\n

It is being reported that some customers based in the United Kingdom and Canada are being informed that their Xbox Series X<\/a> and\/or Xbox Series S won’t arrive today. Canada, in particular, is dealing with a shipment issue of consoles that have been ordered directly from Microsoft.<\/p>\n

A number of units appeared to be stuck at a FedEx facility in Memphis, Tennessee and, though no explanation has been given about what caused the hold-up, IGN says that customers have since reported that transit has now begun and units are on track to arrive tomorrow on November 11th.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in the UK, Amazon has been emailing customers to tell them that it is not only able to deliver pre-orders by the end of today, they may not arrive until the end of December<\/a> at the very latest, which is over a month away. This also looks set to affect American customers too, as they have been receiving the exact same email.<\/p>\n

The Xbox Series X’s launch in the UK is especially suffering<\/a>, as it comes while the country is in a coronavirus-enforced lockdown, which requires non-essential stores to remain closed. Some retailers are still fulfilling pre-orders by offering click-and-collect, though this means that anyone who was unable to pre-order one can’t walk into their local store and buy one there.<\/p>\n

As disappointing as all this news is, it’s not especially surprising either. With how quickly pre-orders sold out, there was always likely going to be a supply-and-demand issue and the coronavirus pandemic has undeniably been a factor behind the struggling distribution and limited stock. There were plenty of tell-tale signs too that the launch would be rough; only last month, a UK retailer\u00a0informed its customers that it wouldn’t be able to deliver the Xbox Series X pre-orders<\/a> in time for launch day.<\/p>\n

It’s probably safe to assume that the PlayStation 5’s launch on November 12th will be just as rough, though GameStop has confirmed that it will most definitely have both next-gen consoles available on Black Friday<\/a>. The downside is that customers will have to go in-store if they hope to get one.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Xbox Series X\/S\u00a0<\/strong>is available today.<\/p>\n
