This holiday season, you can play with the planet in mind. In the spirit of this season of giving, we want to share our tips for how you can be kinder to the planet while doing what you love most, giocando.

Buying a new device? Reduce your impact with refurbished consoles and ground shipping

Xbox now offers Xbox Serie X|S (QubicGames celebra il 18° anniversario con una grande vendita di switch e omaggi) as a lower waste alternative to buying a brand-new console. These refurbished consoles undergo a rigorous certification process, are tested to confirm they’re working properly, and inspected for hardware and cosmetic quality to deliver the high-quality gaming experience our fans love, while improving the circularity of our consoles.

Buy your console or Xbox accessories through the Microsoft Store and choose ground shipping. Microsoft Store offers the option of free ground shipping (3-7 giorni lavorativi) on eligible orders in the contiguous US, which is a lower-carbon emission solution compared to standard airfreight expedited and express shipping.

Trade-in your used device for cash

If you’re upgrading your own console, you can trade in eligible devices through the Microsoft Store to give them a new life and get cash back. The Microsoft Store Trade-in Program is powered by Teladvance, a company that specializes in electronics reuse and recycling. You get cash back and your used device gets a new home — or it’s recycled in a responsible way. Click here to learn more about this program and where it’s available.

Use the power-saving setting, shutdown (risparmio energetico), su Xbox Series X|S to reduce energy consumption

One of the quickest ways to reduce emissions from gameplay (e la tua bolletta energetica!) is to make sure you have the latest energy saving features enabled. You’ll use up to 20x less power when your console is turned off using shutdown (risparmio energetico) mode and your system and games will stay updated.

Turn on Shutdown (risparmio energetico) in three easy steps:

1. Press the Xbox button on your controller.

3. Choose Shutdown (risparmio energetico).
