Standalone Kinect for Xbox One launching in October for $150

Xbox-One-KinectMicrosoft more or less dumped the Xbox One Kinect like a sack of potatoes once they needed to find a way to cut the consoleโ€™s price and boost sales. But what about those Xbox One owners who bought the cheaper $399.99 SKU and still wanted the option to pick up a Kinect sensor later on? Well soon they can.

Starting October 7th, the standalone Xbox One Kinect sensor will go on sale for $149.99. If you wanted one before you probably needed to pick one up from eBay or craigslist, but at least thereโ€™s an official option on the way.

The standalone Xbox One Kinect sensor will include Dance Central Spotlight as a digital download and a bundle of 10 tracks.
