It’s a great time to be a gamer at the moment.
The gaming world is set to go all change very shortly. Recently we’ve seen a raft new gaming announcements made at E3 including the upcoming release of new editions of the Xbox One and the Playstation 4.
The best thing about a bunch of new releases? It normally means a collection of old releases start undergoing nice price reductions.
Microsoft have putting a number of their products on sale this summer ahead of autumn release of the Xbox One S.
Current Xbox One models are available for £200 if you’re eagled eyed enough, and now Microsoft are about to put a bunch of games on sale as part of their special Xbox Ultimate Game Sale.
Running from the 5-11 July, across the Xbox One, Xbox 360 and Windows 10, games will be going on the cheap, with some priced up to 60% off. There’s an added 10% off if you’re a Xbox Live Gold member.
Here’s our pick of what’s going on sale
Doom
Arguably the best shooter of the year, DOOM will be available for 30% off if you’re an Xbox Gold member.
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Lara Croft’s latest adventure will be available at 40% off during the sale. Somehow it’s still an Xbox One exclusive (and will remain as one until the end of 2016). Grab it and gloat to your PS4-owning mates.
The Arkham series
Rocksteady’s Batman trilogy (Asylum, City and Knight) are some of the greatest games ever made. They also contain what may be one of the greatest Batman stories ever in Arkham City. They’re 75% off during the sale. We’ll let you do the rest.
For a full list of games, including a 50% off a selection of backwards compatible titles such as Dark Souls, Dead Space and Dirt 3, you can head here. All prices will switch over on the Xbox store tomorrow. Happy gaming everyone.
