Does the Xbox Series S overheat?

Yes, the Xbox Series S can get very hot to the touch, especially around its exhaust vent, but this is often normal due to its compact design and powerful internals; it only truly "overheats" (shuts down or throttles) if its airflow is blocked by dust, poor placement (smothered vents), or storage issues, though some users report overheating with specific demanding games or even when brand new. Proper ventilation, keeping storage below 90%, and regular cleaning are key to preventing actual issues, as it's designed to run warm but typically won't malfunction if it can breathe.
