Xbox One Release Date And Price: Available November 8? Rumors Point To Microsoft’s One-Week Head-Start Over Sony’s Playstation 4

Although Microsoft has not announced the release date of the Xbox One, a source tells Kotaku that the next-generation console will be available on November 8, giving Microsoft a one-week head-start over Sony's launch of the Playstation 4.

The source, who works for a marketing company that handles signage and product placement for retail giant Walmart, passed along what they say is an email for a company conference call that lists all the midnight openings the chain has planned, Kotaku reports.

As you can see, alongside the big holiday games, and just before the PS4, is the Xbox One, at November 8, Kotaku also reports.

But The Xbox One launch date was supposedly leaked on Amazon, as a combination of release dates all seem to sync up on November 27, the Inquisitr reports. 

The release date all these things have in common may only be a placeholder at this point, as other games such as Call of Duty: Ghosts have a November 5 release date, or it could be that these items will be sold on that day but all shipped the same day as the console, the Inquisitr also reports. 

But Microsoft - which is reportedly struggling to get enough units manufactured - will want to keep the launch as late as possible, but still in time to be on shelves for the Christmas shopping, GulfNews reports, leaving gamers wondering if they'll launch the console on November 29.
