The holiday season is a time of joy for many, especially those that want to save a few bucks on some new tech and gaming. Consoles typically launch in this season with a few bundles tailored to different game tastes. The Xbox One X is the new console on the block this year, but Microsoft confirms that there will be no console bundles for the new system.

In response to a tweet, Xbox's Head of Games Marketing confirmed some disappointing news. The Xbox One X will not be receiving any holiday bundles this year.

We are not planning any bundles with the X this holiday.

If you're not in the market for the top tier Xbox One, there are upcoming deals for the other Xbox One consoles and software during Black Friday 2017. Get your hearts ready for a potential streaming-heavy future from Microsoft, as well.
