GameStop wants you to know that it has your back amid the new PS5 price hike in the U.S…. but only for a few days. The company is offering extra $50 credit towards the purchase of a PS5 when trading in older consoles collecting dust, including the Xbox Series X|S.

Trade in your old consoles including Xbox Series X and get PS5 for a good price

“Trade in any PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, or Switch [1], and we’ll add an extra $50 in trade credit toward your new PS5,” the offer reads. Xbox Series X|S stands out here because unlike the others, it’s not a last-gen console.

As far as we know, there’s no offer of extra credit if folks want to trade in a PS5 for Xbox Series X (not that many would want to). So, do pardon us. We found this a tad amusing.

What’s even more amusing is that the offer is valid through August 23. That’s this Saturday, so you might want to hurry up.

Interestingly, the fine print also states that if players try to trade in an incomplete console (say, without cables, etc.), they’ll still get the $50 credit. However, the trade itself will understandably be of lower value.
