We are not sure what the stock situation is in SA for the console. We recommend that as soon as the Xbox Series X and S pre-orders open in South Africa, you place one to secure your console. Keep in mind that the Series S console does not have a disc drive whereas the X does. Make sure you know what you are pre-ordering before you make payment.
