Xbox One S is a slimmed down version of original Xbox One so it does not include a port for the Kinect motion tracker. You need a separate adapter to use the Kinect sensor present on the console. Several retailers are offering the adapter for a price of $ 40. However, if you are an early adopter of Kinect design, Microsoft has got a deal for you. The company is running a promotion scheme where you can get the Kinect Adapter for free only for a limited period.
