Just days after retailers were forced to write out to customers who'd thought they'd successfully secured a PS5 pre-order, retailers are similarly having to email people the bad news that not all Xbox Series X pre-orders can be honored.

According to UK retailer ShopTo, the retailer's allocation of the Xbox Series X was not enough to fulfill the number of pre-orders it had taken when early orders for the next-gen console went on sale. 

If you haven't managed to pre-order a PS5 or Xbox Series X, don't lose hope yet. Certain retailers have been able to secure more stock since pre-orders went live and as our features editor Josh West argues, 2021 is when next-gen will really start to deliver. 

Here are all the upcoming Xbox Series X games that we know about so far.
