Recently, we wrote that the Chinese authorities, after 12 years, lifted the ban on the sale of foreign gaming consoles in the country. Companies like Sony and Microsoft immediately rushed to explore a new promising market. But, as it turned out, Chinese consumers are not waiting for the most attractive prices for gaming entertainment.
Chinese online store Zol.com published a price tag of a new Microsoft console. What a surprise Chinese gamers were when they found out that Xbox One would cost 4999 Chinese yuan, which is approximately 800 USD at the current rate. Even more surprising is the fact that with this high price, consoles are produced in local Chinese factories.
Xbox One will appear on the shelves of Chinese stores in September of this year. At the same time, residents of Russia will be able to buy it. Let us remind you that, thanks to the information recently leaked to the network, the Russian price for the console has become known: a kit with a Kinect sensor will cost 27,999 rubles to the Russians, and a bare console without Kinect will cost 22,999 rubles.
The Russian price tag, as you may have noticed, at the current rate is even higher than the Chinese, and is approximately $ 830. But domestic gamers have become accustomed to the fact that the new generation of consoles are sold in our country with an impressive cheat. For example, in the US, a complete Xbox One costs $ 499 (about 18,000 rubles), and in Europe - 499 euros (22,800 rubles).
