Microsoft has confirmed a few more things about the upcoming launch of its Xbox One next-gen console, including the fact that new stocks of the Xbox One Day One Edition are now available for pre-order at retailers from the 13 specific countries where the device will launch.

The Xbox One is set to make its debut on November 22, after many months where it had only a loose November release period and saw many rumors appear, especially after Sony pinned down the launch of the PS4 in North America, on November 15, and in Europe, on November 29.

Now, after confirming the launch date and the actual countries where the Xbox One will make its debut, Microsoft's Yusef Mehdi has confirmed a few more things about the upcoming launch and the fact that there are new stocks of the Xbox One Day One Edition that can be pre-ordered.

"We are humbled and gratified by the tremendous interest in Xbox One from game fans everywhere," he said on the Xbox Wire.

"We sold out of our pre-order supply faster than at any other time in our history and we are on path to have the biggest launch of an Xbox ever. We look forward to celebrating with millions and millions of gamers this holiday."

"As a result of this incredible consumer demand and the development progress on Xbox One, I am thrilled to share that today we are making available a limited number of additional Xbox One Day One consoles for pre-order. We have coordinated with our retail partners to make it easy for you to reserve your Xbox One today."

Many more markets will follow in 2014, according to Microsoft.
