Read More »The next-generation PlayStation and Xbox were released in the fall of 2020, and if you aren’t already excited for a particular model, it’s a complicated time to decide what to buy. Which games you like to play, what level of graphics performance you value, how you play online, and even which system is available to buy all go into deciding which console is best for you. With stock issues continuing to plague both new console lines, even used PlayStation 4 and Xbox One last-generation consoles are selling for high prices on online auction sites like eBay. Although there are hundreds of great games to play on those last-gen consoles, we don’t think you should pay more than $200 for a used system. Unfortunately, those previously owned systems are routinely selling for $300 or more at this writing, and new last-gen consoles aren’t being made. The easiest console to find right now is also the most popular. The Nintendo Switch is a nice console with fun games and few downsides, and it’s a favorite among Wirecutter staffers—both the casual players and the video game pros. You can read more about the Switch (including the new OLED Model), and why it appeals to so many people, in the Switch section below. If you’re shopping for a console to give to someone else, we recommend sticking with whatever brand of console they last had (and saving the receipt). Sticking with one brand means that they can still play the games they already have and connect with the same friends online. It also means they’ll be able to play the sequels to any platform-exclusive games they already love. A warning, though: The PS5 and Xbox Series X continue to be in short supply, even going into 2023. If you see one of those consoles available with no price gouging, be ready to jump on it. The Xbox Series S has been moderately easier to find, however, and we think it’s a good alternative. For everyone else, if you’re ready to jump into the next generation with the PlayStation 5 (disc or digital) or with the Xbox Series X or Series S, we've been testing both for more than a year now, and we can help guide you through the differences. If you already know which brand you’ll choose, we also have separate guides dedicated to the new Xbox Series X|S options and the new PlayStation 5 options.
