Xbox One Elite Bundle Announced

Comes with a hybrid SSD, as well as the Elite Controller.

Microsoft today announced a brand new Xbox one bundle- and this one seems to be aimed purely at the enthusiast gamer. This one appears to be for the highest of the high ends, delivering the absolute best possible Xbox One experience that can be had right now.

It is called, fittingly, the Xbox One Elite Bundle, and it retails for $499. But boy, does it justify that price- the console comes with 1TB of storage space, presented on a hybrid solid state drive, that stores frequently accessed files on a solid state partition and optimizes system performance so you can get to the action up to 20 percent faster from energy-saving mode, as well as the Xbox One Elite controller- the modular controller meant specifically for enthusiast gamers, that lets them have control over their gaming experience.

The system is a gorgeous all black, with a matte finish (no more shiny reflections, or ugly, smudged fingerprints!), and will be available starting this November worldwide. In the US, you can get it exclusively at a Microsoft Store, or at Gamestop.
