People noticed that Xbox products-including the console itself, accessories, and games-have disappeared from the Costco website in both the US and UK. While Xbox has been doing well financially, thanks to its Game Pass subscription, a recent drop in console sales might be why Costco decided to stop selling them.
The Xbox Series X hasn’t performed as well as its competitor, the PlayStation 5, with hardware sales down about 22% compared to the previous year as of July 2025. Despite this, Xbox Game Pass is thriving, recently reaching a record $5 billion in revenue since its launch in 2017. With fewer people buying physical game copies, retail stores are reducing their game selections, and one large online retailer might also be scaling back its offerings.
The Xbox Section Is Missing From the Costco Website in the US and UK
People noticed on the ResetEra forum (and reported by TheGamer) that Xbox products have disappeared from both the US and UK Costco websites – searches for the console now show no results. PlayStation and Nintendo items are still available, though. Some think this is just a temporary glitch, while others believe it might be due to slow Xbox sales combined with the recent price increase. As of now, searching for Xbox on Costco’s website still returns nothing, even after a full day since the initial report.
After Microsoft raised the price of Xbox consoles for the second time in a month, former Blizzard president Mike Ybarra criticized the company. He believes Microsoft is using tariffs as a pretext for increasing prices, arguing the price hikes are actually about boosting profits and aren’t related to tariffs imposed by the Trump administration.
Okay, gamers, get hyped! Something new is coming from Xbox. They’re showing off a mystery game at Tokyo Game Show on September 27th, but it’s interesting – they’re also doing an official Xbox Showcase on the 25th. Everyone’s wondering why they’re holding back this one game until after the main show, so it’s got people talking and speculating about what it could be!
